  • Abstract
    We have developed a design template for simple, inexpensive model Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) for the purpose of introducing students and schoolchildren to the field of underwater robotics. In this paper we outline our ROV design principles and report on some recent educational applications and workshops using our model ROVs.
