This grant will support experiment which will address a critical issue in undergraduate engineering education. The test project will be based on an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) and will involve hardware and software design and development of ancillary systems necessary to carry out scientific and engineering surveys to obtain needed environmental data. The AUV's layered control approach, developed by Rodney Brooks at MIT's Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, breaks the robot control problem into a set of interacting behaviors. This enables small student teams to work on a single behavior but also forces them to work collaboratively in order to integrate interaction among behaviors. This project will add a new dimension to Research Experiences for Undergraduates by providing experience in design, engineering, construction, and field testing.

这笔赠款将支持实验，这将解决一个关键的 工程本科教育中存在的问题。 测试项目 将以自主水下航行器（AUV）为基础， 涉及硬件和软件设计及配套开发 进行科学和工程测量所需的系统 获取所需的环境数据。 AUV的分层控制方法，由Rodney布鲁克斯在 麻省理工学院的人工智能实验室，打破了机器人 将问题转化为一组相互作用的行为。 这 使小型学生团队能够研究单一行为， 迫使他们协同工作， 行为之间的相互作用。 本项目将新增 维度的研究经验，为本科生提供 设计、工程、施工和现场经验 试验.
