This year, our control systems
have been refined to eliminate overhead involved with socket-based
communications. We also augmented our vision systems with a second camera.
In 2009, our team placed
eleventh in the AUVSI Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Competition at San Diego.
A
major upgrade to Barracuda Mark VII is its new and improved Passive Sonar
System(Hydrophones). Led by Daniel Naito, the electronics team revamped the
once problematic system.
