open in viewerOur project aims to create an autonomous robotic sailboat (SailBot) in order to compete in the International Robotic Sailing Regatta, building off of the results of previous years’ SailBot MQP. We designed and manufactured a new hull to improve the fluid dynamics of the hull and to improve physical accessibility inside the SailBot. The new hull was manufactured out of carbon fiber and mechanical features were integrated from the previous year’s SailBot including the sail, keel, and ballast mechanism. We fully replaced the boat’s software systems, with a focus on communications reliability, failure recovery, and autonomous functionality. Additionally, we redesigned the boat's electrical system to ensure greater platform stability and longevity.
