Spatial awareness needs to be implemented #11

We need some sort of reference to our velocity and movement. currently we can track our rotation and depth, but we cannot compute where we are in space. We need to start brainstorming different ways to accomplish this.

We can use two different flow meters to accomplish this. both can be connected to a simple nano which can be connected over I2C to respond back with its most current reading. The calculations for distance can be done on the jetson side in another module
