This Autonomous Submarine Uses DVL Sound Waves for GPS-Free Underwater Navigation and Exploration CPSdrone is building a DIY autonomous submarine to explore shipwrecks without needing GPS while underwater. Since GPS signals cannot reach the submarine underwater, the team added a Doppler Velocity Log (DVL) to help it navigate. The DVL sends sound waves toward the seafloor and listens for the signals that bounce back. By measuring how the sound changes as the submarine moves, it can… |
