Hardware In the Loop Simulation Environment: The
Fig. 4 shows a general overview of the HILS architecture
used to assist the development and construction of a semiautonomous underwater vehicle. It contains the main
components:
Embedded Hardware: It represents a clone of part of
the hardware used to produce the UUV. The inputs
consists of the forces generated by the environment
(like current, pressure, buoyancy, etc) and the forces
generated by the thrusters;
World Model: It consists the model used to represent
the physical world or, more precisely, a very close
representation of where the UUV will operate;
Control Parameters: They are the main and auxiliary
variables used to operate adequately the control
