USV Dashboard

A lightweight, cross-platform dashboard for monitoring and visualizing telemetry data from an Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV). Built using Qt 6 (C++ and QML), the application provides a modular UI foundation for real-time robotics systems.

Features

• Qt Quick (QML) based UI
• Modular dashboard layout (top, left, center, logs)
• Cross-platform architecture (Linux / Windows)
• QML module-based structure
• Portable Windows executable (no Qt installation required)

Tech Stack

• C++20
• Qt 6 (Core, Quick, QuickControls2)
• CMake
• MinGW (Windows build)

Build Instructions (Windows)

Ensure Qt 6 with MinGW is installed.

cmake -B build -G "MinGW Makefiles" -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=C:/Qt/6.x.x/mingw_64
cmake --build build

Run:

cd build
app.exe

Deployment

To create a portable executable:

windeployqt app.exe

Package the following for distribution:

• app.exe
• Qt6*.dll
• platforms/
• qml/
• Dashboard/

Release

Download the latest release from the GitHub Releases section. Extract and run app.exe.

Roadmap

• Real-time telemetry ingestion
• Graph visualization (power, speed, depth)
• Event monitoring system
• GPS tracking and mapping
• Camera integration
