Tracking Trends in Undersea Autonomy

Abstract

1) define a comprehensive task structure for underwater autonomy and design future RoboSub tasks on the basis of this task structure; 2) aggregate the decisions of the diverse group of competing engineering students in RoboSub to determine measures of effective autonomy; 3) transition RoboSub to a much smaller vehicle format with full implementation in four years; 4) define the content and cost of basic and advanced developer s toolkits; 5) formulate a set of basic underwater qualifying maneuvers for teams to demonstrate in a local pool; 6) engage a broader community through an intra-annual series of building-block, online web episodes.
