A highly maneuverable underwater vehicle that can be operated remotely with computer assistance was designed, fabricated and tested by researchers at the University of Florida. The vehicle incorporates many off-the-shelf components in order to minimize cost. The body was constructed using a foam core with a fiberglass/carbon fiber outer shell. Approximately 0.9144 m wide by 0.9144 m long by 0.6096 m high, the sub is highly maneuverable due to its small size and tight turn radius. Weighing about 40.82 kg out of the water, it is close to neutrally buoyant in the water. Since buoyant forces are near the top of the sub, while the heavy weight is located at the bottom, it is also inherently stable.
