But the eye is often still better in mixed environment. Cameras are very good in low light or bright light environment, but the eye tend to have better performance in low light situations with a few bright lights or vice versa. But you still can see sth better on a bright screen than next to a bright screen.

[@cheesedoff-with4410]

Bird avoidance might be an issue if operating in twilight/darkness; model ekranoplans operate extremely close to the surface. Even during the day other water users might not be able to avoid a speedy surface skimmer. An autonomous ekranoplan is something I'd love to see, but adding speed and spinning blades to the mix complicates matters considerably. Of course it depends on where and when it's flown.

[@aleksanderlikar5375]

The flat bottom is mainly due to repairs in the dock. Imagine how difficult it would be to subject e.g. 75 thousand-ton ship. And the second reason is that the ship has as little draft as possible.

[@123TeeMee]

Also I think flat bottoms are needed sometimes to sail in water where there's risk of scraping the bottom of the boat on the seabed or rocks or whatever. They are more sea sickness inducing though (I have first hand knowledge of that)

Your autonomous boat is awesome

[@cheese515]

Large ships such as container ships have a self righting effect where, when the ship lists, the center of buoyancy shifts to the side the ship lists to which creates a twisting motion that counters the list.

[@MrCarlozan96]

Could you please explain it better?

[@Moraren]

@@MrCarlozan96 Since the hull is pretty much flat on the bottom, when the boat leans over (lists in boat terms) It pushes that side of the hull deeper into the water giving it more buoyancy on that side, while also raising the opposite side, thus lessening buoyancy there. Therefore it tends to keep itself upright by design. Hope that explains it

[@otm646]

That's literally how every boat works, from a bathtub toy to a massive container ship. The offset between the vessel center of gravity an the center of buoyancy is what produces the righting torque.

that thing would fly until the first little wave or gust of wind. Its already hard enough to build a proper autonomous boat/plane.

[@jttech44]

The problem with an ekranoplan is that the scale starts to matter alot. The full size version could comfortably sit in ground effect at 20+ft off the water, but when you scale that down, it'd have to stay no more than a few inches, which puts it in danger of hitting even the slightest ripple.

@@userAndix basically it's a large mass spinning inside the ship to keep it upright. it's used in large container ships, which probably also allows them to use a flat bottom, but since he doesn't have a stabilizer in here, the boat sometimes rolls from side to side. heres a video explaining it kzbin.info/www/bejne/gX-noaZ4od2If7s

[@kinghainesy]

@@nob0dy27_ Container ships dont typically use them, mainly for the reason is that they just arent effective for a ship that size. On that scale you'll typically use fin stabilisers, but its mostly ocean liners that will use this. As they are ultimately for passenger comfort they arent used on cargo ships. The stability in cargo ships comes from the laterally shift in buoyance when it rolls.

The thing that container boats, with a nearly flat bottom, let be stable are the proportions.. your vessel is around two times as high as it is wide.. you can see that the containervessles are usually as wide as tall or a bit wider.. that results in other problems (that they can’t drive along a side wave without rolling).. So if you build a second one, and I think you should.. it looks cool and I bet you can build a better boat next time! Look at directions of these container boats, since it is a pretty simple shape, if it has to less buoyancy make it longer (that also could help with your speed, and these weird jumping)
