Description: Continued development and demonstration of an unmanned, underwater vehicle capable of navigation, station keeping and performing complex tasks using a robotic arm, all with minimal interaction from an operator stationed on the ocean surface. Strong underwater currents and limited visibility exacerbate the problem of vehicle navigation and control. Performing tasks with the arm requires the development of complex robotic control algorithms and the capability to recognize and determine the dimensions of underwater objects.
