The AUV is a first design and competition effort of Team BangaloreRobotics.
The Design was evaluated mainly for Three major parameters:
1. Small dimension
2. Redundant Analysis and Control system
3. Light weight
The emphasis was in Low Power consumption and energy efficiency.
A lighter AUV needs a low power budget.
The Mission time of useful deployment is comparatively longer.
An attempt was made to construct a lighter AUV.
Limited time and budget constraints have limited the number of innovative ideas to a lower number than was desired.
A major part of the Design was the Mechanical and structural variations.
The Team is thankful To AUVSI Foundation and ONR for providing this opportunity to be a part of the ROBOSUB competition 2013.
