Abstract
The study of submarine environments is affecting a growing audience in the fields of science, technology and entertainment. Archaeologists are always interested in documenting and cataloging underwater sites, while biologists aim at monitoring and sampling water and biological parameters. Photos captured during a mission can integrate additional levels of environmental information, such as location coordinates, temperature, pressure and pH measurements, which are gathered by the mobile device at the time of shooting. Some of the information is obtained by onboard sensors; other data can be accessed by the capability of specific boards to interface with external hardware over a variety of commonly used protocols. These boards are small enough to be easily housed in an underwater smartphone case. Data gathered by the mobile device are collected in a database managed by a solid and well-organized server technology that is able to process and return results to external users.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
