Outline • Objective • Range Test • Asynchronous Test • GUI • Test Bed • Future Tasks • Timeline • Budget
Objective • Design a highly accurate localization system capable of being used on underwater vehicles. • Implement localization algorithms for real time testing. • Provide the AUV senior design group with an effective localization schematic that can be integrated into the AUV for underwater tracking.
Range Test • Variance is approximately 0.08 m. • Add speed of sound

Asynchronous Maximum Likelihood • The asynchronous localization algorithm is centered around the above maximum likelihood equation which we implemented in C:

Graphical User Interface (GUI) • A virtual representation of the asynchronous localization system. • Read the coordinates of AUV from the output of the asynchronous algorithm. • AUV will move to the correct position. • Software: QT Project
Test Bed • Preform hardware testing and software verification before actual testing. • Check node sending/receiving capabilities • Calibrate node offsets. • Allows us to quickly run simulations.
Budget • Currently all our hardware needs are handled by the Underwater Sensor Network Lab. • In terms of software the version of Code Composer studio we use is a free license version provided by the company. • Spent: • $11.94 on battery for laser range finder • $22.83 on a bucket for the test bed • $965.23 left of $1000 Budget
Future Work Future Work • Relative Mapping • Place all nodes into water. • Assume one node to be the origin • Asynchronous clocks, no other known positions. • Nodes send messages to each other, use the range between nodes to create a map of their positions relative to one another. • Lake Testing at Mansfield Hollow
