Project Objectives/Goals
- Construct a ROV out of suitable materials capable of going to 200 ft. in depth
- Evaluate and implement an "onboard" power system for propulsion and electrical service
- Modify the current optical system to allow the production of underwater 3-D still images
- Study various "intelligent" controls systems and implement one into the ROV unit
- Implement a system of data collection that will monitor the external environment as well as the health and well being of the ROV itself
- Engineer a neutrally buoyant tether
- Create an instrument data collection package that will be capable of being left behind and then retrieved at a later time
