Abstract	:	The expense and challenge of accessing the deep ocean continue to limit long-duration observa-tions of gelatinous marine animals. Studies commonplace in the research of terrestrial and flyinganimal behaviors are largely impractical in the deep ocean with current technology. Behaviors ofgelatinous species, collectively referred to here as jellies, are remarkably complex given the rela-tively simple physiology of these animals. Most jellies do not have a centralized nervous system,yet these animals demonstrate intricate foraging, migration, evasion and aggregation behaviors.New technologies are required to discover previously unobserved behaviors, to study behavioraldistributions over time, and to investigate the links between behaviors and environmental stimuli.Automating the jellyfish-tracking task will give biologists the capability to acquire more dataover significantly longer observation periods than is possible with current-generation technology.In particular, automation addresses the two key limitations associated with current techniques fordata collection: pilot fatigue and infrastructure cost. This dissertation develops a core automatedjellyfish-tracking technology and discusses its successful demonstration as a pilot-assist for aremotely-operated vehicle (ROV). This system, which successfully tracked gelatinous animals forperiods as long as 89 minutes during field trials, can also serve as a control component for futuretested for theQ1 PC1 bus cardBoth these projects mere sofixare des elopment efforts tonards contributing to dlfferentaspects of Roboucs and lZ1echatronics projects m the Controls and Roboucs Group..
