Novel methods for operation of snake-like Eelume underwater vehicles.

Offentlig prosjektsammendrag

The need for high quality ocean and seabed data at low effort and low cost is large and growing within subsea-related industries, such as ocean science, infrastructure security, navy and oil & gas. Norway has significant values embedded in subsea infrastructure along its vast coastline. Eelume's unique snake-like underwater vehicle can be either subsea resident or deployed from a vessel or quay. Through this project we are enhancing the manoeuvring, navigation and payload capabilities of our vehicle. We are also gathering market knowledge learning more about applicable use cases for our technology platform.
