Pointer experiment concept Sample Clauses

Pointer experiment concept. The ASV is the sole provider of absolute position data and for improved overall operation it should be included in the formation. To keep the ASV close in the formation it can operate in three ways: a) Buddy follower, b) diver follower, c) cg follower; where the cg point is defined as the artificial centre of gravity of the diver-Buddy cluster. Note that c) virtually positions the ASV on a line connecting the diver and Buddy positions. For the experiments the diver and Buddy weights will be identical, i.e. the ASV will be in-between the diver and Buddy surface projections.
