Abstract
Sunda Strait of Indonesia needs a technology to find out information on the bottom of Sunda Strait, and the suitable technology is ROV. The existing ROVs have limitations; those are in design structure and hydrodynamic response. An early research on design concepts has been conducted to develop existing ROVs. This research has a purpose to develop existing ROVs and to continue preliminary research on design concepts of the ROVs, and also to obtain the best front surface geometry modeling of the ROV body. The method used was the Granville method which determines parametric profile on ROV body which had streamlined body geometry. The result of the research was to obtain K1(curvature at xm) and rn (radius of the curvature at front end part) modeling, so that the best front surface geometry modeling curve on the body of the ROV Observation Class can be found.
