  • An Embedded Linux Based Navigation System for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
    An Embedded Linux Based Navigation System for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Sonia Thakur James M. Conrad University of North Carolina at Charlotte University of North Carolina at Charlotte [email protected] [email protected] Abstract The purpose of a data acquisition system is to provide reliable and timely information. The received information can be then analyzed in real-time or remotely to assess the state of the measured environment. Similarly, for an autonomous underwater navigation system it is critical to analyze the data received from the inertial measurement unit and other acoustic sensors to calculate its position and direct the vehicle. This work is an effort toward the development of a data logging system based on an embedded Linux platform for an unmanned underwater vehicle. An embedded Linux based board has been chosen Fig. 1. A Hydroid Remus AUV [2] as the core data processing unit of the Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). This work implements device drivers required for interfacing the inertial sensors and 1.1. Motivation GPS unit to the core-processing unit. This system is intended to provide a development base for implementing The motivation of this work is to design an underwater various navigation algorithms, like Kalman Filter, to navigation system composed of a low cost Embedded calculate the direction of the vehicle. Linux platform and small sized sensors. For air or ground vehicles, a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver with differential corrections (DGPS) can provide very precise 1. Introduction and inexpensive measurements of geodetic coordinates. Unfortunately these GPS radio signals cannot penetrate Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are beneath the ocean’s surface, and this poses a considerable unmanned and untethered submarines.

  • The Tech Sector Rocks
    Written by Published by Nick Tredennick DynamicSilicon Gilder Publishing, LLC The Investor's Guide to Breakthrough Micro Devices The Tech Sector Rocks echnology is the best sector in the market. Moore’s law predicts sustained improvements in integrated circuits (ICs). ICs get cheaper and they get more capable. As they get cheaper, they invade new areas. T As they get more capable, they invade new areas. Carpets, automobiles, fabrics, tires, soft drinks, and entertainment don’t do this. Markets for these things grow with improvements in productivity and they grow with the invention of new materials. But, tires aren’t going to invade the carpet business or the soft drink business. Marketing can drive soft drinks into more refrigerators or into more countries, but there’s no Moore’s law equivalent that’s going to drive them into automobile engines or into light bulbs. Some investors shun the tech sector for its boom and bust cycles (May 2001, Dynamic Silicon). This year may be one of the worst ever in the semiconductor industry. Following on two years of better than 30% growth, the industry may shrink by 20%. There’s nothing new about this cycle; it’s old hat for indus- try veterans. The cycle is a function of the way the semiconductor industry does business. In spite of these cycles, the semiconductor industry has sustained a cumulative growth rate of 17% for forty years. Farm equipment can’t do that; building materials can’t do that. Moore’s law works for integrated circuits; it does not work for tractors.
