Morphology
undeviating = deviating (transparent) = un + deviate + ing
Formed by negation 'un-' + the participial adjective 'deviating'; the meaning 'not deviating' is directly recoverable.
Etymology
Undeviating is made of un- 'not' and deviate 'to turn away from the road', where the root means 'way' or 'road'. So undeviating means keeping a straight course and not turning aside.
