Hello Guys,

Please Forward the mail to students whoever may be interested. We will be thankful if you can recommend someone really good for the team.


About:


A team consisting of 13 undergraduate students, supported by CFI and under the guidance of Prof. V.G.Idichandy (Dept. Of Ocean Engineering), is developing an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle.

Amogh is a state-of-the-art hydrodynamic dual hull heavy bottom underwater vehicle design, highly manoeuvrable and capable of surging up to 1m/s. The vehicle is loaded with an Intel core CPU, propelled by 5 thrusters and designed for a mission time of 60 minutes. Laden with inertial AHRS and depth transducers, it has the capability of upgrading into a scientific version with oceanographic sensors.

Please find more information on this link. A preliminary design report can be found here.


Mission:

The team is currently targeting two competitions - AUVSI RoboSub 2013 and NIOT SAVe 2014 and  is even expecting to participate in Robsub 2013.

In NIOTSAVe 2014, the IIT Madras Team after beating 17 top teams from all over India in the first two rounds is waiting for its results of the third round. The final competition will be amongst top 5 teams which will take place in December this year.

 

Requirements:

After completing their mechanical and electrical design, the team took a leap and started off with the software which includes –

  1. Development of a mission planner and debugging console.
  2. Process and Algorithm Development for navigation and underwater vision (Image Processing).
  3. Acoustic Signal Processing

The team is inviting applications for the same. Applicants must have a prior knowledge of Java and/or C++. Applicants knowing OpenCV and Arduino would be given preference.

Applicants are expected to spend a good fraction of their summer vacation working with the team.


Interested please apply on this link. Last date to apply - 5PM, 17th April 2013 (Wednesday).

Selected applicants would be called for an interview.
