Final Run at 2007 AUV Competition
This is a video of our final run at the 2007 10th annual ONR & AUVSI Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Competition. In our last run we just barely missed surfacing in an octagon. Had we come up only a few inches in the direction of the octagon, we would have been in the finals.
The song that is playing during the video has the prominent line “What are the odds?”. Appropriately, this same song just happened to be playing over the competition’s PA system during the runs shown in the video. As we were only able to get so close by dead reckoning, we almost beat the odds by surfacing in the nearest octagon.
