ODYSSEY II Arctic Configuration: An Underwater Robot for Exploring the Deep Ocean

摘要

Dedicated to the development of fully autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), theMIT Sea Grant Underwater Vehicles Laboratory is the nation's leading developer of small, inexpensive, high-performance, unmanned underwater robots. Because our vehicles are capable of accomplishing missions without tethers, cables or remote control, they will have diverse applications in oceanography, environmental monitoring and underwater resource studies. In addition, the laboratory is a stimulating training ground for graduate and undergraduate students and visiting engineers and scientists from around the world. The report is schematic of Odyssey II-Arctic Configuration, An Underwater Robot for Exploring the Deep Ocean.
