Argo (towed vehicle); Jason (remotely operated vehicle); Remote submersibles; Underwater explorationAbstract
The purpose of the contract was to develop and place into operational status a new, combined research/inspection unmanned vehicle system called ARGO/JASON. ARGO is a high altitude search and survey vehicle for use in
deep ocean exploration. A companion vehicle, JASON, which will be tethered to ARGO, will be a free swimming, highly maneuverable vehicle with manipulative capability and high quality vision for close-up inspection. [This is] the Final Report of all work funded and performed under the auspices of this
contract during the period 1 September 1982 through 30 April 1986.

Six degree of freedom vehicle controller design for the operation of an unmanned underwater vehicle in a shallow water environment
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1994-09)Closed loop control of an unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) in the dynamically difficult environment of shallow water requires explicit consideration of the highly coupled nature of the governing non-linear equations of ... -
A parallel hypothesis method of autonomous underwater vehicle navigation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2009-06)This research presents a parallel hypothesis method for autonomous underwater vehicle navigation that enables a vehicle to expand the operating envelope of existing long baseline acoustic navigation systems by incorporating ... -
Cooperative localization for autonomous underwater vehicles
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2009-02)Self-localization of an underwater vehicle is particularly challenging due to the absence of Global Positioning System (GPS) reception or features at known positions that could otherwise have been used for position ...
