RoBuoy Underwater Glider
Worked with Prof. T. Ashokan and Prof. T. Ranganathan at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IITM) on the design and development of an underwater glider for long-range oceanic exploration.
-
Designed an underwater glider with a diving depth of up to 50 meters using metallic bellow and linear actuators
-
Optimized the wing design parameters using Muli-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) to maximize the glider’s range and depth
-
Simulated the glider’s trajectory by modeling its dynamics in Simulink
