Design and Development ship borne Autonomous Aerial Vehicle (AAV) to deploy recover and re-deploy AS sensor(s)payload (s) from platforms at sea

The objective is to design and develop a ship based AAV that can transport multiple AS sensors, deploy them at pre-defined or dynamically assigned locations with positional accuracy, recover sensors after mission completion and re-deploy them as operational requirement evolve. The vehicle must be capable of operate at high seas with reliable precision navigation and ensure safe handling of sensitive sensor payloads
