Abstract

This paper presents implementation and test of autonomous underwater vehicles(AUVs) for AUVs fleet. Recently, AUVs have become a main tool to survey underwater in scientific, and commercial applications because of the significant improvement of performance and low working costs. However, it is very time-consuming work to survey a wide area by an AUV. So the concept of AUVs fleet attracts much attention in the field of AUV technologies. Currently, Maritime and Ocean Engineering Research Institute (MOERI) is developing the technologies of AUVs fleet from 2006. The AUV fleet consists of an unmanned surface vehicle (USV) and three AUVs. This paper introduces the AUV ISiMI100 for a member of the AUVs fleet.
