Project
Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Platform
Early-stage AUV platform work at Blackvolt Technologies focusing on navigation, propulsion, and embedded autonomy stack for maritime scenarios.
Problem Statement
Establish a robust foundation for autonomous underwater inspection and surveillance without exposing proprietary mission software.
System Design
Modular architecture separating onboard compute, low-level motor control, and sensor integration, with clear interfaces for higher-level autonomy modules.
Key Challenges
Working within underwater communication and sensing constraints while designing an architecture that remains adaptable to different mission profiles.
Results
Formed the basis of Blackvolt’s incubation at V-NEST and ongoing collaborations around autonomous maritime robotics.
