Abstract:	Ocean is one of big challenging and extreme environments, and hard for human to access directly. As the tool for ocean survey, Autonomous Underwater Vehicles: AUVs are expected and developed from ‘80s. The recent rapid progress of computer and information technologies makes the development of AUVs easier and more practical. We had developed a handy AUV "Kyubic" for the observation of shallow water and artificial structures. In this paper, we describe the system architecture of Kyubic and the experimental results in Underwater Robotics Competition in Okinawa 2020.
