TRUE OR FALSE: An Autonomous Underwater Vehicle is a robotic device which does not need to be pre-programmed. Answer instructions True False

Answer

False

An Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) is indeed a robotic device that can operate underwater without direct human intervention. However, it must be pre-programmed with specific instructions or missions before deployment. AUVs are equipped with advanced sensors and algorithms that enable them to navigate, collect data, and perform tasks autonomously while executing the pre-programmed commands. They also have the ability to make real-time decisions based on sensor inputs, but this autonomy doesn't eliminate the necessity of a prior programming phase. Hence, the statement indicating that they do not need to be pre-programmed is incorrect.
