ABSTRACT
This work proposes the wirelessly powered underwater display that can control its position by changing its own buoyancy. The proposed display is equipped with a motor-based actuator to control its effective volume for buoyancy control. The newly proposed underwater AC wireless power transfer (WPT) function drives the power-consuming OLED display and actuation motor. This work confirmed that the proposed WPT function could deliver mW-class power even to hundreds of mm3-class volume LEDs.

Wirelessly powered bistable display tags
UbiComp '13: Proceedings of the 2013 ACM international joint conference on Pervasive and ubiquitous computingPaper displays have a number of attractive properties, in particular the ability to present visual information perpetually with no power source. However, they are not digitally updatable or re-usable. Bistable display materials, such as e-paper, promise ...
Low-Cost Hybrid Underwater Glider Utilizes Buoyancy and Thruster Actuation: Design and Control
AbstractThis paper presents the design and control method of the hybrid underwater glider (HUG) for hands-on investigative engineering. The HUG is a lightweight, small, modular, and low-cost underwater vehicle. The HUG uses a piston buoyancy system to ...
