  • Abstract
    Since the invention of the Savonius Rotor, people have been using rapidly an analog instrument to measure the ocean water current. The limited accuracy of an analog instrument result in a new digital instrument. This project was designing a digital instrument for Ocean Engineering Department. The digital instrument was built from the scratch and the procedure for investigate, design, and test will be explained in this paper
