Modern hydrography and the contribution of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) Abstract Hydrography is the discipline focused on measuring and describing the physical characteristics of oceans, seas, lakes, and rivers. Its primary objective is to characterize and measure the seabed to map navigable waters and potential hazards. Traditionally oriented toward maritime safety and nautical charting, hydrography…
L’hydrographie moderne et l’apport des véhicules sous-marins autonomes (AUVs) Résumé L’hydrographie est la discipline visant à la mesure et à la description des caractéristiques physiques des océans, mers, lacs et cours d’eau. L’objectif principal est la caractérisation et la mesure du fond, de manière à cartographier les étendues navigables et leurs potentiels dangers. Traditionnellement orientée…
With the growing demand for smaller and more agile underwater platforms to monitor lakes and coastal waters, Xylem is excited to expand its offerings…
In collaboration with CNRS (LEMAR) and Université de Montpellier @MARBEC for our joint project called SEAMAP, funded by BPI France 2030…
We’re really pleased to announce a major upgrade to our micro-AUVs: the integration of the Nucleus1000 developed by @Nortek…
How Long Can an AUV Stay Underwater? Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are sophisticated robotic systems designed to perform underwater missions without real-time human control. One of the most frequently asked questions about AUVs is: “How long can an AUV stay underwater?” The answer depends on various factors, including the AUV’s size, battery capacity, onboard systems,…
How much does an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) cost? Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are powerful tools used for underwater exploration, mapping, data collection, and inspection across a wide range of industries. As interest in ocean technology continues to grow—from climate research and offshore energy to national defense and underwater archaeology—many organizations and institutions are asking:…
What Is the Difference Between ROV and AUV? Underwater robotics has revolutionized how we explore, monitor, and interact with the ocean. Two commonly used technologies in this field are ROVs (Remotely Operated Vehicles) and AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles). While both are designed for underwater operations, they differ significantly in design, capabilities, and the way they…
What are autonomous underwater vehicles used for? Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are sophisticated robotic platforms designed to operate independently beneath the surface of the water. Unlike remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), which require constant human control via tethers, AUVs navigate, collect data, and execute missions autonomously, using onboard sensors, pre-programmed instructions, and artificial intelligence. Their ability…
