AB  - Remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) can be used for ocean explorations. ROVs are typically tethered underwater robots. For a survey task and explorations in shallow channels, a small scale ROV can be used. This small scale ROV can allow engineering students to gain understanding of the water property and various electrical and mechanical components. The development of a small scale ROV can be performed for an educational purpose. To build an underwater robot, a capstone project team was formed with four senior Engineering Technology (ET) students at Texas A&M University in Fall 2018. One graduate student from the Subsea engineering program was assigned to mentor the team. This ROV can be operated manually. Moreover, this ROV was designed to perform a dive mission autonomously using a sonar sensor that can measure the depth of the water. This ROV can be configured as tethered or tether-less like an autonomous operated vehicle. In this aspect, this is called Hybrid ROV. This Hybrid ROV can measure the water temperature. The ROV has IMU (Inertial measurement unit) and GPS (Global Positioning System) units for navigation. Moreover, it has an underwater camera and LED (Light-Emitting Diode) lights to identify objects in a dark environment. Two configurations of the manipulators are supported. The base frame of this underwater robot consists of aluminum extrusions. This dimension of the base frame of the underwater robot is 40 cm × 35 cm × 25 cm. This capstone was concluded in Spring 2019. This team participated in a regional Texas MATE (Marine Advanced Technology Education) competition in May 2019. In this paper, educational values and lessons learned via the capstone experience as well as the detail of the educational ROV will be presented.
