The Way of Water: Development of a fleet of water-based drones for live performance
The Way of Water (wow.ethz.ch) fleet comprises 24 holonomic USVs, performing synchronized choreographies to music. Each vehicle is equipped with water fountains, RGB lighting, and mist generators, and utilizes a Fossen-based MPC with a multi-rate EKF (IMU + RTK-GPS) for tracking preplanned trajectories with ~5 cm accuracy. Time‐synced via GPS‐PPS, the swarm communicates over a hybrid Wi-Fi/4G network to broadcast real-time “trigger primitive” commands with <20 ms latency.
