Design and Manufacturing of a Small Autonomous Underwater Vehicle for Surveillance Missions

Nico Prayogo

Abstract


This paper presents the design and manufacturing process of a small Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) specifically tailored for surveillance missions. The UUV is intended to operate autonomously, collecting critical data in underwater environments to enhance surveillance capabilities. The design phase encompasses hydrodynamic considerations, sensor integration, and system optimization. Advanced computational tools, including computer-aided design and simulation software, are employed to achieve an optimal balance between performance, efficiency, and maneuverability. The manufacturing process involves the selection of suitable materials, fabrication techniques, and assembly methods to ensure durability, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. Emphasis is placed on miniaturization, weight reduction, and power efficiency to enhance the UUV's overall performance. The final product demonstrates promising results, showcasing improved surveillance capabilities in various underwater scenarios. Further testing and refinement are recommended to fully evaluate the UUV's operational effectiveness and robustness.
