Our AUV
Leviathan is our 2021 autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) designed to be "future-proof" for the next five years. It features new competitive abilities including ease of motion, passive stability, bi-directional vision, and designated locations for future improvements.

- Objective: launch an active or inactive projectile at specified underwater targets with varying degrees of difficulty.
- The design consists of a projectile or torpedo which is independently powered with pressurized CO2. The triggering mechanism operates similarly to a spring action rifle. - The puncture plate is released by a servo mount that rotates in/out of the puncture plate's path. The servo's position and enclosure dimensions are set to both fit within the frame of the submarine as well as to keep the parallel springs adequately compressed in order to puncture the compressed CO2 cartridge. - The image on the left shows the ANSYS Fluid Flow (CFX) analysis to observe the streamlines' deviation as a function of the torpedo length. |
