Development Navigation Light for Tugboat Prototype Based on Arduino

Abstract

This research aimed to develop a navigation light on the Arduino program as a prototype scale. The method for this research used a prototyping model containing two steps firstly digital model and secondly physical model called a physical prototype. The program of light simulation is based on the Arduino program for some IALA regulations for navigation on tugboat ships. We build a digital 3D model of a tugboat ship with SolidWork software and the result for prototype of a tugboat with navigation lights for seven conditions there are tugboats that are running but not towing or pulling, the tugboat's navigation light is running and is holding or pulling, the tugboat's navigation light is anchored and under quarantine, the tugboat's navigation lights that are running do not tow or tow the barge that is being guided on board, the tugboat's navigation lights that are currently running are towing or pulling the barge that is being guided on board, lights for tugboats entering other countries (immigration), and Lights of a tugboat refueling (bunker). The lamp navigation in ship sign by using a microcontroller for navigation proposed for the practical navigation scenarios.
