Development of a Remotely Operated Vehicle Test-bed

This paper presents the development of a remotely operated vehicle (ROV), designed to serve as a convenient, cost-effective platform for research and experimental validation of hardware, sensors and control algorithms. Both of the mechanical and control system design are introduced. The vehicle with...
