Autonomous robotic kayak

Description:

Autonomous marine robots are used to survey and take water samples from unsteady coastal environments.

This project develops a modular autonomous multi-agent robotic system that has been designed to survey a time-varying coastal environment, and using that information, obtain a sparse but representative set of water samples.
