Project Summary | Project Information |
---|---|
The goal of this project is to create an underwater robot that can detect a falling object, descend down and intercept the object before it hits the bottom of the environment, while returning to a "home" location. The fish will achieve the capabilities required by utilizing McKibben muscles for horizontal propulsion. In addition, the fish will be able to detect the object and make a optimal decision on how to intercept the object before it hits the bottom of the environment. There have been two phases, P14029 and P15029, that have incorporated buoyancy, RC and autonomous control. Our team will utilize what has already been created, and design a new Robotic fish utilizing a new pump system and tail. Our team will be collaborating our efforts with P16229.

Table of Contents
Content Guidelines: Use these links below to guide you in populating your website. A few points to consider:
- Be aware of any information that your sponsor might not want publicly available. You can use the directory for this information, and it will be available only to those users with Guest access to your site.
- Do not post any files on your site that are not yours, unless you are certain that they are in the public domain or you have received permission to post them. Examples of files that you should avoid posting are copies of published papers, standards documents, textbook chapters/excerpts, or copyrighted images. If you have received a .pdf of a paper through Interlibrary Loan, or purchased an ASTM or ISO standard, you may post it in the private directory, where only your team and guide will have access to it.
- If you are including contact information for people that would otherwise not be publicly available, make sure you have their permission. For example, your faculty advisor's email address and office phone number are already publicly available on the KGCOE website, and is fine to post. However, if he or she has provided a cell phone number to the team, that is most likely not public information and should not be posted without explicit permission.
