摘要

This paper presents a modular underwater robotic vehicle (URV) architecture design, optimized for rapid customization to suit changes in mission requirements. The goal was to implement a flexible modular re-configurable architecture for a semi-autonomous inspection class URV. Aspects of modularity were applied to both hardware and software subsystems in the form of a self-contained power and controller pod design. The current semi-autonomous configuration has two pods. The sensor pod houses the primary navigation system and its main sensors, and the actuator pod hosts the main controller. The actuator pod receives motion commands from the surface and controls the various thruster and camera subsystems. Software modularity was built on the QNX4.25 real-time operating system, exploiting its modular multi-controller, multi-process capabilities. By grouping hardware and its complementary software into 'self contained' modules or pods, changes in URV specification could be implemented with relative ease, from a simple eyeball configuration to a light intervention semi-autonomous hybrid URV. This novel "plug-and-play" implementation detracts from the traditional customized configurations adopted by both industrial and research URVs.
