Maya AUV is an

AUV), developed by the Marine Instrumentation Division at the National Institute of Oceanography

(NIO), India.

Description

The Maya AUV belongs to a class of small autonomous underwater vehicles^[1] that have been gaining popularity in marine application areas such as oceanography, monitoring the coastal environment, as well as in naval applications such as mapping of naval mines for mine countermeasures.

The vehicle has an endurance of 7.2 hours,

Inertial Measurement Unit. The vehicle weighs approximately 54 kg in air, with the main hull built from an aluminum alloy. It is powered by lithium polymer batteries and has a nominal speed of 1.5 m/s.^[4]

Development

The development of Maya was jointly funded by NIO and the

AUV

for scientific applications.

Part of the Maya AUV development was done under the scope of an Indo-Portuguese collaboration that aimed to build and test the joint operation of two AUVs for marine science applications via AdI Portugal (MAYASub project). Sensors used in the Maya AUV include Aanderaa

L&T

, in 2010.
