Mission Validation, Risk Mitigation
- Unified Simulation Environment
- Pairing vehicle software with AUV dynamics and performance models
- Enabling validation of mission task sequences, configurations, autonomous behaviors, navigation strategies, and energy budgets
- Know Before It Goes
- Reduces risk to mission success - see results before deploying asset
- Data-driven performance analysis
- Detailed energy usage and navigation with ocean currents, terrain, and sea state

- Adaptable
- Creating an AUV-specific model with CoTs POSIEDON Modeling and Simulation Tool Suite
- Model integrates with PLUTO-Sim enabling assessment of vehicle performance as impacted by simulated environmental effects
- Reduces Overall Operating Costs
- Significantly reduces need for expensive field testing
- Facilitating development of new autonomous behaviors, fault response testing, and hardware-in-the-loop evaluations
