Development of Fins for Underwater Robots with 3D Printer and Experimental Evaluation

Abstract

This paper explores the innovative application of 3D printing technology in developing fins for underwater robots. The study delves into the design, fabrication, and optimization processes involved in creating fins using 3D printed technology, with the objective of improving the agility, performance, and overall capabilities of underwater robotics. The analyses and experimental results present the empirical findings of testing these 3D-printed fins.
