- Description
- The required services are to study a bio-inspired UUV design operating in shallow water environments with marine vegetation. Boston Engineering�s GhostSwimmer is an autonomous underwater vehicle shaped like a large tuna fish. The GhostSwimmer uses a moving tailfin for propulsion and rotating side fins for roll, pitch, and depth control. An analysis is needed to see if this bio-inspired propulsion, stability, and maneuvering scheme proves advantageous over traditional UUV designs in shallow water with high concentrations of marine vegetation to support management decisions. Boston Engineering will spend 5 days on-site at NPS for each phase of analysis (total support duration is two weeks) to provide on-site support regarding operation of the GhostSwimmer, cost of collaborating on the data collection plan, configuring the GhostSwimmer, preparation for equipment shipping and shipping costs between Massachusetts and California, and final destination check out.
