…said. “It's designed for ROVs, but is adaptable to AUVs [autonomous underwater vehicles], ASVs [autonomous surface vehicles], and UUVs [unmanned underwater vehicles].” “The motherboard supports NVIDIA Jetson and STM332 MCU [microcontroller units] for real-time control and I/O,” said Cross. “For example, to upgrade a camera for low-light sensitivity, we provide the basic software for adding software and increasing performance. Software updates are all packaged.” How much do marine robotics vendors rely on proprietary software? “It is an issue in our space,” acknowledged Cross. “Others have closed ecosystems and are harder to modify. Some of the large working-class ROVs in oil…

…of strategies to address potential impacts from the dumping.” AUVs worked in tandem The expedition included a team of 31 scientists, engineers, and crew conducting 24-hour, around-the-clock operations to deploy two AUVs used for the expedition from R/V Sally Ride. The research vessel is one of the most technologically advanced vessels in the U.S. Academic Research Fleet, and is owned by the Office of Naval Research and operated by Scripps on behalf of the U.S. research community.
