TL;DR: A recommender system for the trim and flight parameters is developed to aid trainee pilots and enable round-the-clock operations.
Abstract: Currently, pilots maximise the performance of Seaglider underwater gliders by selecting their set-up parameters. Building on existing procedures based on the assumption of steady-state motions, a recommender system for the trim and flight parameters is developed to aid trainee pilots and enable round-the-clock operations. The system has been validated with data from 16 missions run in waters off the United Kingdom and Australia. Whereas close agreement to the actual decisions by pilots is found for the trim parameters, the prediction of the flight parameters requires further smoothing.

TL;DR: In the video, a formation control problem using an Autonomous Surface Vehicle and an Aut autonomous Underwater Vehicle is presented first, then followed by a multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles control problem.
Abstract: In the video we present results obtained from experiments we ran with multiple unmanned vehicles. The vehicles used in the experiments were made in the LSTS, which is introduced in the beginning of the video. A formation control problem using an Autonomous Surface Vehicle and an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle is presented first, then followed by a multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles control problem. After both problems an approach is proposed and results are presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on the mechanical design that water prove and design of the thruster using the DC motor and propeller, and the main objectives of the construction of the AUV are to replace human to do tasks underwater.
Abstract: In the new era of technology, unmanned vehicles was created to help human explore the area that are can’t reached by human kind. Robotic can be related to the most of invention which can reduce human’s work using specialized equipment and devices that control and perform the particular tasks. For Underwater exploration, Underwater Vehicle without human are created to help human do research. Most of installation pipeline underwater can be dangerous area. The purpose invention of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) can bring human to reach the dangerous areas. AUV stands for Autonomous Underwater Vehicle. Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) is unmanned or robotic vehicles that are using some technology to bring new capabilities to work in the subsea environment. Nowadays, this technology of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) has upgrade their abilities which are can explore into deep seas. To reach that, a lot of investments are needed. This project will be focus on development of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles which are performing limited capabilities. AUV uses propellers to move the vehicle along vertical and horizontal axis that automatic operate based on the programming coding. The main objectives of the construction of the AUV are to replace human to do tasks underwater. In this project, the scope of the study focused on the mechanical design that water prove and design of the thruster using the DC motor and propeller.
