URobotics at Berkeley designs, builds, and tests autonomous underwater vehicles to compete at the annual RoboSub Summer Competition. Additionally, we hope to utilize the AUV’s that we build to research different aspects of bodies of water in the Bay Area.
We are always excited to have new members join our organization, as we want to share our love for underwater robotics as well as provide students with the learning opportunity to work on a collaborative project. For the Fall 2020/Spring 2021 Academic Year, we hope to improve upon our previous design. This year, based on our initial designs, we anticipate that we can build an AUV that is 33% smaller and 40% lighter than our previous iteration!
