Abstract

The present invention discloses a modular underwater robot and a control method therefor. The modular underwater robot includes support plates, a first chamber, a second chamber, and a power assembly, where the supporting plates are stacked, and front end edges and rear end edges of the support plates are respectively provided with a first hollow portion and a second hollow portion; the first chamber is disposed in the first hollow portion; the second chamber is disposed in the second hollow portion, and the second chamber and the first chamber are in a same horizontal position; and the power assembly includes fixed vector thrusters and vertical thrusters. As such, the fixed vector thrusters can enable the modular underwater robot to move forward, backward, or rotatably, so that flexibility of the modular underwater robot can be improved.
