The PID for the model canbe implemented for the simulation. Figure 4. Feedback Control System for Horizontal Plane Model [6] – modified from [11]2. Student DesignIf one assumes in the simulation that the USV’s speed is V m/s and is assumed constant, then theSea Fox model can be further simplified for the

, then (1) provide as precise of a geo-location as possible in order to enable the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) expert to respondto the exact location and (2) provide as much information as possible on the located object(s) toan EOD subject matter expert (SME) on shore. The goal of providing this information was toenable the SME to assess if the object was potentially dangerous, not dangerous, or potentially sodangerous that perhaps divers should not be in their vicinity. It is important to note that the toplevel objectives provided to the student team were purposely generalized and not directive innature, in order to encourage non-traditional and out-of-box solutions and to avoid driving thestudent team toward a specific solution.
