Abstract :
Underwater robotic vehicles (URVs) have greater speed, endurance and depth capability as well as a higher factor of safety than human divers. However, URVs have difficult control problems. Dynamics and control problems of the vehicle are discussed and some advanced vehicle technologies are reviewed in this presentation
