This is an introduction to the development of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles based on the hardware and know-how of the MIT ORCA student group. The first part of the class is a survey of AUV technology (mechanical, propulsion, electronics, sensors, computing). In the second part, students form groups and work on projects related to the existing ORCA AUV, the vehicle that represented MIT in the past four AUVSI competitions.
