This system helps a boat automatically follow a fishing rig, like a lure or bait. It uses sonar to detect the rig's position relative to the boat, measuring its location in port, starboard, and downward directions. The system then sends signals to the boat's autopilot to steer the rudder, keeping the boat near the rig or even anticipating its movement.
Why it matters: Filed before widespread advancements in real-time object detection and predictive algorithms for embedded systems. The processing circuitry's task of accurately detecting a fishing rig and predicting its movement is now more robust and efficient with current machine learning capabilities.
