+ + + +Our Mission
+Simple and Elegant Design
+Our software utilizes ROS, open source software that allows for quick, modular, and distributed design; our powerful simulator uses Gazebo, and facilitates testing of all algorithms prior to deployment on the physical system.
+Robust Infrastructure
+NaviGator has multiple redundant systems, a strong and readily adaptable mechanical system (including both passive and active electronic cool components), several commercial off-the-shelf technology devices, many UF student-designed circuit boards, and rigorously simulated and tested software systems.
+Extensively Tested Software
+With over 250 hours of in-water testing, over 2000 hours of simulated testing, and a robust codebase reforged in the fires of Virtual RobotX 2022, NaviGator AMS is ready for the 2022 RobotX competition.
+About Us
+NaviGator AMS is a set of maritime vehicles built by students in the Machine Intelligence Laboratory (MIL) at the University of Florida (UF) for the 2016 Maritime RobotX competition.
+The main autonomous vehicle that constitutes the NaviGator AMS project is built upon a WAM-V boat. Other maritime systems will also be utilized for this project.
+We will be competing at the upcoming RobotX competition in Sarasota 2024!
