Robotic systems are becoming more ubiquitous, whether on land, in the air, or in water. In the aquatic realm, aquatic drones including ROVs (remotely operated vehicles) and AUVs (autonomous underwater vehicles) have opened new opportunities to investigate the ocean depths. However, these technologies have limitations related to shipboard support, programing, and functionality in complex marine environments. A new form of AUV is being developed to become operational. These drones are based on animal designs and capabilities. Biological AUVs (BAUVs) promise to improve performance in the varied environments of the ocean. Comparison of animal swimming performance with conventional AUVs and BAUVs demonstrates that natural systems still have swimming capabilities beyond the current state of AUV technology. However, the performances of aquatic animals with respect to swimming speed, efficiency, maneuverability, and stealth can serve as benchmarks to direct the development of bio-inspired AUV technology with enhanced capabilities.

与目前的AUV技术相比，水生动物作为生物启发无人机的模型的优势。

无论在陆地，空中还是水中，机器人系统都变得越来越普遍。在水域中，包括ROV（遥控车）和AUV（自主水下车）在内的水上无人机为调查海洋深度提供了新的机会。但是，这些技术在复杂的海洋环境中具有与船上支持，编程和功能有关的限制。正在开发一种新形式的AUV以投入使用。这些无人机基于动物的设计和能力。生物AUV（BAUV）有望改善海洋各种环境下的性能。将动物的游泳性能与常规AUV和BAUV进行比较表明，自然系统仍然具有超出AUV技术当前状态的游泳功能。然而，
