ROS middleware for DESERT

The ROS MiddleWare for DESERT is an easy and efficent module that allows robotic applications to communicate through an underwater acoustic channel using the DESERT protocols stack. With a special attention to the unique characteristics of underwater networks, it provides an open source interface you can use for any kind of automated project involving submerged devices.

Since ROS was created a lot of Data Distribution Services were implemented to allow inter-node communication, but none of them was suitable for acoustic transmission. The goal of this middleware is to expand the potential of the framework to new usage scenarios, opening up new horizons in various fields such as offshore drilling, oceanography, and underwater robotics.

The project is mantained by the SIGNET laboratory at the University of Padova’s Department of Information Engineering and was started as the thesis research of Davide Costa. More information about this institution can be found on the official website in the underwater networks section.
