OUC:ROVER : Technical Report

This 31-page report, published by the Ocean University of China, describes the design and construction of an underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV).

The competition includes Explorer, Ranger, Navigator, and Scout classes.

In the report, an abstract introduces the project and team. The design basis is then presented, which includes information on the design process, mechanical structure, electrical products, software, and control station. Safety protection measures are then considered. The project's management structure is then highlighted. Next, challenges, lessons learned, skills developed, and future improvements are considered. Finally, a reflection, resources, and an appendix are provided. 

Manuals for each class and technical documentation from other teams are available to view separately.
