About
Sarthak Raj, a second-year student at IIT Bombay, presents a project focusing on designing autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) for low-frequency ambient noise validation in oceans. Ambient noise, a mix of natural and anthropogenic sources, necessitates a custom solution for the Indian Ocean region. AUVs offer advantages over remotely operated vehicles, providing comprehensive noise maps. Subsystems include mechanical (buoyancy, stability, propulsion), electrical (power source, computer, GPU), and software (control algorithm). The project aims for a modular AUV design for various applications, offering a cost-effective solution for noise validation.
