Nautilus One Documentation

Welcome to Nautilus One's Wiki! Here, you'll find some basic information about Nautilus's capabilities and licensing, assembly instructions, configuration instructions, and an operations manual. We recommend reading in order first, then coming back to specifics you need later. This wiki is forked from LOCO AUV as our project was first inspired by LoCO.

Configuration Instructions

Install the OS and configure all computing devices before placing the devices in the robot. We recommend installing software and configuring OS's, then testing each connected device individually, configuring the network and software, then placing the RPI and Nano in the robot and performing in-situ tests.
