Review and Application of Unmanned Surface Vehicle in China

In recent years, unmanned surface vehicles have emerged in an endless stream, and more and more special functions have been given. The unmanned surface vehicles has experienced explosive growth in China, and in addition to military applications, the civilian market has also shown strong demand. In this paper, we discussed the relevant researches and constructions in China, and we summed up the trends of development and application related to the unmanned surface vehicle in China. Meanwhile, the studies on the unmanned surface vehicles for design , perception , navigation control , modular design and so on are reviewed. We proposed the in-depth research strategy and combined application suggestions of unmanned surface vehicles, also prospected the future development direction and market prospect of unmanned surface vehicles.
