Background about Robofish and Current State Robofish: An autonomous fish that utilizes McKibben muscles to power lifelike motion through water Potential uses range from military surveillance to research Four prior MSD teams have worked on the RobofishP14029 - Robotic Fish Powered by Hydraulic McKibben Muscles (Phase 1)P15029 - Underwater Fish Buoyancy (Phase 2)P16029 - Robofish Object Retrieval (Phase 3)P16229 - Robofish Navigation (Phase 4)GB
Projects: 14029 & 15029 Designed and created base model for Robofish using McKibben musclesWorking prototype that could swim forward and turn Added depth control and short range object detection to Robofish GB
Projects: 16029 & 16229 Added water pump and tail to improve navigation control Improved handling from base model & rudimentary tail Added autonomous navigation capabilities GB

Problem Definition Current State: - Robotic fish with hydraulic McKibben artificial muscles- Designed to minimize any mechanical or robotic appearance- Implemented sensor capable of detecting objects fallen into the water- Installed mechanical talons to intercept objects before they reach the ground- Limited battery charge capacity Desired State: - Battery charge capacity detector on robotic fish - Floating platform to charge batteries to full - Communication systems to relay captured data remotely JN
Project Deliverables Operational platform to charge the robotic fish within 12 hours. Improved robotic fish design to implement charging and communication capabilities Test data that demonstrates platform adheres to customer and engineering requirementsDetailed design documentation of the platform and improved robotic fish JN
