The Phoenix Autonomous Underwater Vehicle

2013
The Phoenix autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is a robot for student research in shallow-water sensing and control (Figure 1). Phoenix is neutrally buoyant at 387 pounds (176 kg) with a hull length of 7.2 feet (2.2 m). Multiple propellers, thrusters, plane surfaces and sonars make this robot highly controllable.

Autonomous underwater vehicles

2018
usc Refereed/Peer-reviewed The chapter deals with the development of indirect adaptive controllers based on Fuzzy Control approach for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs). The non-linear, coupled and time-varying dynamics of AUVs necessitates the development of adaptive controllers.

GPS in autonomous underwater vehicles

6th International Conference on Electronic Engineering in Oceanography, 1994
The UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) is developing an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) capable of measuring, storing and transmitting full-depth oceanographic data over basin-wide tracks. An important feature of this AUV (known as Autosub) is that it will surface periodically for short periods in order to communicate with its base and ...

Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Docking

2016
This chapter describes the practical challenges of docking autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV s) in the ocean environment and approaches undertaken to create working docking systems. Early docking work was motivated by the desire to operate AUVs for multiple sorties without recovery or human servicing of the AUV. To accomplish this, the docking system

Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Systems

1997
Abstract : The long-term goal is to understand the physical and biological relationships often requires high resolution sampling far exceeding present capabilities. If spatially adaptive sampling can be developed, data resolution can be greatly improved over that presently possible with conventional sensor platforms.
