Jesuit Robotics: Technical Report
![](local/data/caches/images/scaled/img_00034994_300x300.png)
This 25-page report, published by Jesuit High School, describes the design and construction of the underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV) created by the ROVOTICS team for the Explorer Class of the 2023 MATE ROV competition. MATE ROV is a global competition that challenges STEM students to build underwater ROVs to complete challenges. The competition is split into the following classes based on build complexity: Explorer, Ranger, Pioneer, Navigator, and Scout.
The report begins by introducing ROVOTICS and their ROV, followed by an overview of the company's teamwork and management. Next, it goes into the design rationale (CORE-ROV overview, design process, etc.) and the vehicle design (electrical and control systems, vehicle structure, propulsion, etc.). Also covered is safety, critical analysis (testing and troubleshooting), and accounting. The following appendices are included: Electronics SID Diagram (systems integration diagram), Tardigrade Software Architecture, Tardigrade's Free Body Diagram, Budget Spreadsheet, Project Costing Spreadsheet, and ROV Operations Safety Checklist.
Manuals for each competition class and technical reports from other teams are available to view separately.
