Description:
|
This project involves the design and fabrication of an underwater autonomous vehicle. The project involves the consideration of a lot of factors associated with underwater vehicular movement. Some things to be considered are water tightness of vehicle, maneuverability in water considering water pressure, thruster movement and placement, and programming for autonomy. The intention of this project is to compete in the annual AUVSI Robosub competition. |
