TEAMER: xWave Real Time IMU Optimization for Advanced Controls
CalWave is developing a wave energy converter (WEC) called xWave that operates fully submerged and is classified as a type of submerged pressure differential WEC. As ocean waves pass over the submerged wave buoy, a pressure differential is created, exciting the absorber in multiple degrees of freedom to oscillate in resonance with the ocean waves. Energy is efficiently extracted using multiple independently controllable power take-off (PTO) units. Based on CalWave's 2-body WEC technology tested in the US DOE's Wave Energy Prize, multiple improvements on absorber geometry and PTO controls have since been achieved.
This submission entails data and post access report for the xWave's Real Time IMU (inertial measurement unit) Optimization for Advanced Controls, from CalWave / EGI's (Evergreen Innovation) TEAMER RFTS 3 (request for technical support) award.
