The goal of this project Autonomous Aquatic Drone was to develop systems for a self-propelled and remote-controlled aquatic platform to be used mainly for research purposes. The systems pertained to powertrain, drivetrain, design of housing structures and strut mechanisms for desired behavior of the boat (in this case it had to hydrofoil), and electronic systems engineering. The designs were aimed at a six meter platform, with plans to be applied in research and in defense.
