System-on-chip (SoC) development for maritime technologies

该项目的目标是探索用于海洋传感的片上系统（SoC）的创新。具体目标是：1。与工业合作伙伴合作，生成集成到海洋环境中的SoC系统需求。在可能的情况下，生成一个初步的电路配置，以满足定义的要求，在印刷电路板（PCB）技术上使用商业现成组件的原型，并评估其性能。评估原型设备的性能，在优化芯片系统原型设计之前确定设计的优势和劣势。在英国或加拿大的Ultra工厂的代表性环境中演示TRL-5的SoC设计。向工业伙伴提供关于将单片系统技术纳入海洋环境的可行性的审查。与FUSE的另一个项目合作，开发基于新型压电材料的传感器技术的声纳解决方案原型。

The project goal is to explore innovations in system-on-chip (SoC) for maritime sensing. The specific objectives are:1. Collaborating with the Industrial Partner, generate requirements for a SoC system for incorporation into the maritime environment.2. Generate a preliminary circuit configuration to fulfil, where possible, the defined requirements, prototype using commercial off the shelf components on printed circuit board (PCB) technology and assess its performance.3. Assess the performance of the prototyped device, identify strengths and weaknesses of the design before optimising the design for system-on-a-chip prototyping.4. Demonstrate the SoC design at TRL-5 in a representative environment at a Ultra facility in either the UK or Canada.5. Provide a review to industrial partner on the viability of incorporating system-on-a-chip technology into the maritime environment.6. Scope to team with another FUSE project to prototype a sonar solution with sensor technology based on a novel piezoelectric material.
