Submerge Submarine — Grand Control & Mission Planner Navigation

Overview

The Submerge submarine is an advanced unmanned underwater system engineered for precision navigation, endurance, and operational safety. Its control stack integrates Grand Control—the supervisory command layer—with Mission Planner—the autonomous route‑planning and execution module. The result: mission assurance with human operators retained at a safe remove.

Control Architecture

1) Grand Control (Supervisory C2)

The “overseer” interface for setting objectives, validating constraints, monitoring health, and—when necessary—intervening. It establishes safety envelopes, communications policy, and mission authority.

  • Operator Oversight: live telemetry, status dashboards, abort and recall controls.
  • Safety Boundaries: depth, geofence, energy, and comms constraints enforced in real time.
  • Redundancy Management: failover behaviours for sensors, power, and propulsion.

2) Mission Planner (Autonomy & Navigation)

The autonomy layer transforms objectives into executable routes using environmental data and sensor fusion. It performs obstacle avoidance, path re‑planning, and adherence to the supervisory safety plan.

  • Route Generation: bathymetry-aware planning with contingency waypoints.
  • Sensor Fusion: merges INS/DVL, sonar, and environmental feeds for robust state estimation.
  • Obstacle Avoidance: dynamic re‑planning under supervisory constraints.

Why This Configuration Reduces Human Risk

  • No Onboard Crew: eliminates exposure to extreme pressure, toxic environments, and structural hazards.
  • Remote Operations: operators remain in secure facilities with full visibility and override authority.
  • Fail‑safes: Grand Control enforces depth/geofence limits, controlled aborts, and safe‑state behaviours.
  • Ethical Guardrails: autonomy acts as an extension of human decision‑making, not an unconstrained weapon system.

Ethical Integration

The Submerge platform is designed so that humans retain informed oversight while avoiding direct danger. Autonomy is bounded by policy, law, and mission safety constraints; operators can intervene or terminate a mission at any time.

Supervisory Control Flow (Simplified)

Summary

Under Grand Control with Mission Planner navigation, the Submerge submarine keeps people safe by removing the need for onboard crews while preserving human authority over every stage of a mission. It demonstrates responsible autonomy: oversight without exposure.
