BALTIMORE, Md., Dec. 11 -- In a new indoor tank filled with almost 43,000 gallons of water, Johns Hopkins University (JHU) engineers are developing and testing computer control systems to serve as the "brains" for some of the world's leading deep sea robotic exploration vehicles. To promote advances in underwater robotics, the Whiting School of Engineering recently built the circular hydrodynamics tank, 14 feet deep and 25 feet in diameter, inside a large lab space in Maryland Hall. In the tank, researchers are testing the JHU remotely operated vehicle, a small underwater robot developed at...Read full article
