Abstract

AbstractAutonomous underwater swarm robotic systems (AU-SRS) are vital for exploration of the vast marine resources, spatio-temporal monitoring of the oceans for understanding the changing climate patterns, marine pollution monitoring, defense, and identification of assets lost in the oceans. The paper summarizes the technological developments in the autonomous underwater vehicles hitherto and discusses the design requirements for next-generation intelligent AU-SRS including intra-vehicle intelligence, inter-vehicle communication, intervention capability, swarm algorithms, and bio-inspired designs. The importance of quality-centered system engineering is also detailed.
