Hello, Steve...
Sorry, I didn't mean to mislead you, but I am not
in the UK....I'm over in the colonies...Canada to be exact.
My ROV is also "tube-y", but it's been alot of fun
building it. I currently have a working vehicle, using
PIC microcontrollers programmed in C.
I'd love to compare notes on the sorts of "bells
and whistle" you envision...
Regards,
Julian

Hi Mark /
Julian
glad to see there
at least two of us in the uk. if we can get the numbers up we could have
our own convention (slightly bitter because i can't go to Portland)
:(
personally i have
a 'thing' about 1ATM subs, don't really know why, i had some interesting sinus
issues when i was learning to dive and i figured if i ever built something
this would be a good solution and a good challenge......when i've got the time
......and extra garage space............one day
Good luck with
your project, hope to see some pics soon on moki?
My ROV project is
nothing great, i've been working on it for a long time but it is coming along
slowly; its also being used as a springboard to advance my Basic programming
as i intend to use a Stamp to provide some intelligence to the vehicle.
My Design is
similar to the one at www.videoray.com
and the Benthic 'little geek' from The Abyss. Having searched all the
net for information on home builds, i was dissmayed to see they all look like
bits of drain pipe and although mine is no different, i'm determined to
produce something that at least looks the part.
kind of a proof of
concept with bells and whistles
Regards
steve

Hello, Steve.
Sorry to bud in like this, but as it happens I am
also involved building ROVs
as well as AUVs. What sort of things are
you working on?
Regards,
Julian Ford
Hi Steve
I'm in Bolton again Land locked but fortunatly
i get to spend a lot of time diving in both Angelsey and
South Cornwall I'm hoping to combine the two
interests. Primarily interested in Ambient pressure subs,
Already started to build the Delta Wing and got
a design of my own on the drawing board (literally)
