The end product is intended to serve the needs of The Chester F. Carlson Center for Imaging Science as well as the Biology Department of The State University of New York College at Brockport. The goal is thus to design and fabricate a vessel that is capable of data collection in the scope of spectral irradiance, pressure, temperature and turbidity. Improvements have been achieved in the areas of data transmission, geo-location and weight. This year’s design also incorporates capabilities for directed surface locomotion which were not available on the original design. The design process of this years design incorporates multiple facets of the Engineering Design Planner? as developed by Dr. Edward Hensel, PE. To this date, the facets involving the concept development and paper design phase have been completed. These facets include recognition and quantification of the need, concept development, feasibility assessment, design and performance parameters, analysis and synthesis of design elements, and a report of the current status of the project, including a project outlook. Preliminary design documentation in the aspect of a technical data package has also reached fulfi
