ACCESS-AUV: Active towed docking stations for survey and sea-bed resident Autonomous Underwater Vehicles

Undervannsroboter blir stadig mer anerkjent som et fremragende verktøy for havundersøkelse- og inspeksjonsoppgaver. Slike roboter er drevet av batterier med begrenset kapasitet og blir derfor vanligvis operert fra konvensjonelle skip som representerer det største bidraget til kostnader, ulykker o...
