Norway – Unmanned underwater vehicles – Autonomous Underwater Vessel (AUV) for seabed mapping

Applied Underwater Robotics Lab at the Institute of Marine Engineering must replace its autonomous underwater vessel (AUV) for seabed mapping. The laboratory currently operates 4 AUV's, one for seabed mapping and three for water column mapping. The existing AUV for seabed mapping has passed its lifetime and must be replaced. The new AUV must be able to cooperate with our existing AUV's for use in education, research and external projects.
