Underwater communication between ROVs #164

Open swordsgnat opened 6 years ago

swordsgnat commented 6 years ago

Hi! I'm working on modelling multiple robots simultaneously and want to also be able to model their communication in a somewhat realistic way. I think this project was designed to model multiple-ROV systems, so I figure it probably had to tackle model underwater communication as well. If I'm right, could I ask what kind of sensors / models did it use to do so, and how they're used?

Hi @swordsgnat, the underwater communication was being simulated by a proprietary emulator in the project the UUV simulator was being used. But this is something I would like to develop for this package, too. If you have any sources and information about how to model this, please let me know. I would be very interested as well.
