Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs)
AUVs are unmanned, untethered vehicles equipped with sensors and cameras that can explore deep-sea environments with greater autonomy and efficiency than manned vehicles.
Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs)
ROVs are tethered vehicles controlled by operators on the surface, equipped with manipulator arms and high-definition cameras for precise exploration and sample collection in deep-sea environments.
Multi-beam Sonar Systems
These systems use multiple beams of sound to create detailed 3D maps of the seafloor, providing valuable data for deep-sea exploration and research.
Seafloor Mapping Technologies
Advanced seafloor mapping technologies, such as LiDAR and sub-bottom profilers, enable researchers to create high-resolution maps of the seafloor and identify geological features in deep-sea environments.
Deep-sea Observatories
Deep-sea observatories are equipped with a range of sensors and instruments to monitor and collect data on deep-sea ecosystems, providing valuable insights into the dynamics of these environments.
