Sensorized Autonomous Manipulation Platform for Underwater Buoyancy Analysis and Redesign
The Office of Naval Research (ONR) is collaborating with the University of Massachusetts Lowell, the Naval Underwater Research Center, and Brown University to research the uses of an unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV). Brown University has sub-contracted Roger Williams University to develop a sensorized test platform with varying task modules for the UUV to interact with. The platform will hang in a test pool and report task statuses in real time. The current design requires an additional five-pound weight for proper pool wall contact. This report describes the analysis done to redesign the platform with the goal of removing the additional weight. An iterative design process took place to achieve a snug fit against the pool wall. Ultimately, the processes proved that the elimination of the ballast was not viable, but instead a new strategic placement of the weight was necessary
