exteroceptive sensors

3.2 Exteroceptive Sensors

For this discussion activity, select one of the following missions:

· Seafloor mapping (UUV)

· Infrastructure inspection (UAS)

· Search and Rescue (USV)

· Vegetation mapping (satellite)

Using this module's readings and your own independent research, create a post that discusses the kind of data that must be gathered, and the types of exteroceptive sensors that are normally used for this mission in this domain. Evaluate the benefits and limitations of these sensors. Conclude with a discussion of new sensor technology that is being developed relevant to your mission and what challenges in sensor technology limit development of this mission set.
