This control system is designed to replace the existing buoy system, namely a buoy using a chain to maintain its position. The method used in the study is an electric motor control method using a microcontroller with GPS coordinates as the return point (home coordinates). The solar cell system that connected to the battery is used as a source of energy for the buoy control system. The result of this device is the distance between the return point and the stop point of less than 12 meters. ## Keywords - Buoy - Global Positioning System - Position (finance) - Computer science - Point (geometry) - Precise Point Positioning - Control system - Positioning system - Microcontroller - Engineering - Electrical engineering - Embedded system - Telecommunications - Marine engineering - Economics - Finance - Mathematics - Geometry - GNSS applications --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
