Popis: The purpose of this study is to find out the results of measurements of floating structure motion response to regular waves using open source microcontrollers produced by wave makers. A direct measurement is carried out in real time using Arduino Mega Microcontroller with an MPU-6050 IMU sensor and HC-SR04 sensor, and the wave maker in towing tank of Ship Hydrodynamics Laboratory, Department of Naval Architecture, Diponegoro University. The floating structures, cylinder and prism hexagon with a diameter and a height of 10 cm, are given a weight that varies according to the desired draft. Each draft is measured the motion response to the same wave. The measuring instrument, MPU-6050, is placed on a floating structure and then the data is transferred via Arduino Mega on each unit of measurement time and then stored on the computer.
