Abstract (EN): FLEXUS unmanned surface vehicle was designed in the context of the Internet of Moving Things. This small catamaran weights less than 15kg and is less than 1m long, making it a very convenient vehicle with reduced logistics needs for operations in real outdoor environments. The present paper describes the resulting system both in terms of design and performances. Based on the requirements for this project, the subsystems composing the vehicle are described. Results obtained from experiments conducted in outdoor conditions have successfully validated this design and are presented in this paper.
