Georgia Tech Savannah Robotics (GTSR) is a research team consisting of undergraduate and graduate students. Founded spring of 2008 and guided by Dr. Fumin Zhang, GTSR has been involved in the MATE ROV competition, ASV RoboBoats competition, and various research projects. My role in this team has been enabling autonomy on the marines vehicles, primarily ASV (autonomous surface vehicle) Victoria developed by GTSR. I led the groups research activities in the Gulf of Mexico (Grand Isle, LA) in the summer of 2011, more information about it can be found here. In 2011 I was part of GTSR's ASV team which participated in the AUVSI/ONR's 4th international roboboat competition, the team qualified for the finals and finished seventh. Videos of ASV Victoria using my GPS waypoint navigation controller for the 2011 competition season, and my simulation of a channel navigation controller for the 2012 competition season can be seen below.

In this video ASV Victoria is seen navigating autonomously to certain waypoints. At each waypoint it stops a short while and goes to the next. Please listen to commentary in video to note when it reaches a waypoint.
Updates to ASV Victoria, getting ready for the 2012 competitions
