Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: A team of undergraduate computer science students conducted research to create an economical autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). The inspiration originated from the high cost associated with this branch of robotics. These vehicles are used in multiple fields including the exploration of large bodies of water and underwater equipment maintenance. These self-sufficient robots are able to keep individuals out of harsh and extreme environments. Our proposed version of an AUV is unique and it can function fully without being physically attached to the surface. The AUVs currently available in the market cost at least ten thousand dollars. Our AUV, as is, has the structure and capability to function on a small scale for just 400 dollars. Our design can be scaled up for more accuracy and longer battery life. This slightly scaled up version could drive the price of our AUV design to two thousand dollars compared to tens of thousands of dollars. This would make it more feasible for companies to have fleets of these underwater robots for a multitude of uses. Another aspect of this research would be creating an entirely new market for hobbyists who would like to send robots underwater for photography, amateur film making, or a number of things that only a consumer driven market can create. From a technical standpoint, this project required thinking up simple solutions to complex problems to keep the cost of the device down. It required the waterproofing of cheap water resistant sensors. It also required thinking outside of the box on parts and equipment that are waterproof but that are not used in robotics. For example, using modified bilge pumps as motors saved money when comparing them to waterproof servos.
