Abstract

The Automarine Module is a simple cost effective method for transforming underwater remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) into autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), with minimum development time, and with no ROV circuit alteration. This paper presents architecture of autonomization of the VideoRay Pro II ROV together with its technical specifications. The paper also presents a procedure for open-loop identification of the nonlinear yaw model. Analytical expressions that are used for model identification are also provided.
