BRACU Duburi

BRACU Duburi Pioneering the depths of water, Bangladesh's first AUV dives to uncover aquatic frontiers. 🌊

This is a community dedicated to AUV and ROV hobbyists and enthusiasts who are passionate about developing cutting-edge underwater vehicle solutions. This is a place to share ideas, knowledge, and expertise and collaborate with others to build innovative technologies that can revolutionise the underwater industry. We work together to establish a sustainable and innovative ecosystem that will drive the growth and development of the underwater industry in Bangladesh and beyond. 🌊

These unmanned robotic systems are designed to operate underwater without direct human control, contributing significantly to ocean exploration and mapping. With the rapid growth of AI, AUV models are now being developed by universities, research institutions, and governments across the globe to solve complex underwater challenges efficiently and sustainably.

BRACU Duburi from Bangladesh is such a project that has earned global attention as well as appreciation for Bangladesh.

To know more about this project, I spoke with Duburi’s Ashabur Rahman Shoummo, senior member of sensors and circuits.

Duburi’s journey began in 2017, during a time when underwater robotics was almost entirely unexplored in Bangladesh. While robotics itself was still gradually growing in the country, no one was truly working in the field of autonomous underwater systems.

“That reality felt surprising to us because Bangladesh is a nation shaped by water. We are surrounded by rivers, deeply connected to the Bay of Bengal, and heavily dependent on our waterways in everyday life. Yet very little technological development was happening in the underwater sector, especially in areas connected to marine research, underwater exploration, safety, and blue economy advancement,” Shoummo said.

Congratulations to BRACU Mongol-Tori on securing 2nd Place in Asia and 7th Globally at the University Rover Challenge 2026! 🚀

This remarkable achievement reflects the team's dedication, innovation, resilience, and countless hours of hard work in pushing the boundaries of planetary exploration technology. Representing Bangladesh on one of the world's most prestigious rover competitions and standing among the global top teams is a milestone that inspires the entire STEM community.

We also extend our heartfelt congratulations to the UIU Mars Rover Team for achieving 1st Place in Asia and an outstanding 2nd Runners-up Global ranking. Together, these achievements highlight the growing strength of Bangladeshi engineering, robotics, and innovation on the international stage.

Wishing both teams continued success as they keep raising the flag of Bangladesh higher in global competitions 🇧🇩✨

BRACU Duburi, Bangladesh’s first underwater robotics research team. After placing Bangladesh on the global stage and making history at RoboSub 2023 by becoming World Runner-up and carrying that legacy forward once again with a Top 8 global finish at RoboSub 2025, our journey now dives even deeper.

From building autonomous underwater systems to advancing AI-powered navigation and real-time underwater perception, we continue turning ambition into innovation beneath the surface. Every mission, every prototype, and every breakthrough reflect years of resilience, research, and the dream of building world-class underwater technology from Bangladesh.

For our oceans, for future exploration, for challenges beyond human reach, we dive with purpose, innovation, and the determination to push boundaries further than ever before.

This is more than just robotics.
This is Bangladesh engineering its future underwater.
This is Bangladesh engineering the Bay of Bengal.

See you at RoboSub 2026!🌊✨

RoboSub preps rolling for 2026!🌊✨

All these years of building, testing, failing, learning, rebuilding, and diving deeper into innovation have shaped BRACU DUBURI into what it is today and now, we’re ready to amaze once again.

From countless workshop nights and pool sessions to every challenge that pushed us beyond our limits, each step has only made the team stronger beneath the water and beyond it.

New challenges. New missions. Same fearless spirit beneath the water.
Same passion. Same dedication. Same dream of carrying Bangladesh proudly onto the global stage once again.

Duburi dives again to amaze 🇧🇩

An evening filled with new faces, familiar bonds, and the beginning of another exciting journey 🖤

BRACU Duburi Orientation 2026 brought together our juniors, senior members, and core team under one roof to share experiences, memories, and the vision that drives our team forward. From introductions and team insights to celebrating the people who built this journey with us, today was all about connection, passion, and becoming part of something bigger.

Welcome aboard to our newest members. The journey starts here 🌊✨

09/05/2026

Behind every smooth turn underwater at RoboSub lies years of patience, failures, rebuilding, and silent progress.

From the early days of BRACU DUBURI to now preparing again for RoboSub in our own rooftop testing facility at BRAC University, at the swimming pool, with our robots underwater, this journey feels special, marking how far we have come in learning, building, and refining through continuous iteration and development 🌊✨

Somewhere along the way, we realized, “Sometimes, the journey becomes more meaningful than the destination itself.”
