Abstract
In this research, an X4-AUV consisting of four thrusters is designed and manufactured to develop a small AUV which does not use any rudders. First, the construction of an X4-AUV and the motion method are described, together with the added mass. Next, for the production of the X4-AUV, we describe the selection of parts and the manufacture of a waterproofed container, and some experiments are conducted to verify the forward motion of the X4-AUV and the rotational motion in each attitude. We propose a method for stabilizing the attitude of the X4-AUV, and confirm the usefulness of the method through the experiments.
