About Us

We were four final mechanical engineering students with diverse backgrounds who came together to work on their final year capstone project. The initial plan was to only design a conceptual prototype for a low cost AUV under the supervision of Dr Ting Zou, Assistant Professor at MUN. As we researched more about AUVs and their operations, we soon realised that our design could definitely be modified to enter the annual RoboSub competition.

The main reasons why we would like to enter the RoboSub:

• We wish to learn as much as we can, and are certain that working on this competition would provide us with challenging experiences.

• Representing MUN in an International competition is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

• It's lot more interesting to create a physical prototype in comparison to only working on a conceptual design.

• Competing in this competition means that it would lead to addition of another engineering student group at MUN (& we are all in support with it).

• Most importantly: It's so much FUN!!!

We are a student group of 33 active members who have come together to learn, grow, and develop our technical and collaboration skills.

As of now, we are fortunate to have experts in Robotics and Underwater Vehicles Development Technology to supervise and mentor us throughout the course of this journey.
