Autonomous Underwater Robots (AURs), nowadays, play an important role in many applications, in particularly, the military projects. Design and development of most AURs in the military projects of Royal Thai Navy in the past would be based only on unsystematic, self-concept or ideas, which could lead to unsatisfactory results when implemented. This paper presents design, development and control of the “Poo-Pang” AUR to serve three proposes of Thai navy military project; (1) underwater survey under to conserve the environment and underwater resources, (2) military diving training, and (3) inspection of underwater ship structures to find any water leakages. The robot was developed using technical design parameters obtained from the Quality Function Deployment (QFD) design method. A prototype robot was constructed and tested with the conventional PID control. The experimental results showed that the constructed robot could operate and meet the 3 requirements of the project.
