THE STINGRAY
The focus of the Stingray Team at the University of California, San Diego is to design and build an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) to compete in AUVSI & ONR's Annual International AUV Competition. The requirements of the competition are to develop a vehicle capable of completing a number of realistic underwater challenges that focus on navigation, vision, sonar and environment manipulation.
Our approach to this competition is not only to compete as a student organization, but also to shape the future of underwater vehicles by working to create the next generation of AUV technology. The result of these efforts is the Stingray: a robust and modular research platform capable of fitting new payloads Function should come before form, but elegant designs are beautiful in both regards. The Stingray sacrifices neither functionality nor style. |
