Underwater ROV 2019-20
A neutrally buoyant underwater ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) designed with the goal of being able to un-plug a connector autonomously after being driven by a user to a work site. The ROV is powered by a custom designed on-board, rechargeable battery and uses five thrusters and a servo driven manipulator to accomplish its tasks. It is tethered to an on-shore computer and communicates with this computer using its Raspberry Pi on-board computer. The two computers send control messages using ROS (Robot Operating System). All of this makes the ROV a highly configurable platform for future research.
