ABOUT THE SCHOOL

CSIR-National Institute of Oceanography
Goa, India
20-25 November 2023

ABOUT

The course covers a large spectrum of disciplines that are at the core of advance marine robotic systems design, implementation, and testing. As a key distinctive feature, we will afford the participants a well balanced presentation of theoretical and practical issues pertaining to marine robotic systems design. The conceptual aspects are firmly rooted in dynamical systems theory and optimization, and in techniques for navigation, guidance, and control of single and cooperative marine robots. The course will also cover the steps required to go from concept to practice, with hands-on experiments illustrating the use of hardware-in-the-loop simulation tools using Matlab and the participation in demonstrations with underwater vehicles developed at NIO. The school will also feature a series of lectures and demonstrations with real equipment devoted to Networked Acoustic Systems, with applications to multiple vehicle communications and single/cooperative navigation and control.
