A portable Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) has been meticulously designed for a diverse
array of underwater applications, including wreck surveys, bottom classification and
investigation, as well as bottom searches. The entire system is portable and capable of one-man
operation. This ROV is equipped to conduct the necessary detection and verification of
underwater objects and wrecks with a high degree of accuracy, utilizing advanced onboard
sensors and electronic subsystems. These subsystems include an underwater camera, lighting
systems, a SONAR system, power and propulsion systems, an underwater positioning system,
and a robotic manipulator, all of which contribute to its operational effectiveness.
