Abstract

In this paper we plan to develop an efficient control system for an autonomous underwater vehicle, for surveillance of wells, ponds, canals etc. It moves inside the water to obtain profile of various water beds and bodies. An embedded module is designed to control and monitor complete AUV in water. The control system uses closed loop PID controller which can control precise movement of propellers and thrusters, to maintain a stable direction-finding path. This embedded module is subdivided into control system, propulsion, navigation, safety and data acquisition
