Pipefish AUV: The flight style AUV delivering small, purpose built, hover capable AUVs [PDF]
A current challenge for AUV missions is to combine long endurance with high manoeuvrability. The proposed Pipefish AUV is a long endurance AUV capable of high quality survey missions that can deliver multiple hover capable AUVs to sites of interest. The Pipefish AUV and the small vehicles can perform cooperative tasks and reach remote locations without

Design and Testing of Auv Docking Modules for a Renewably Powered Offshore Auv Servicing Platform [PDF]
Abstract Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) missions are limited in range and duration by the vehicle’s battery capacity, and sensor payloads are limited by the processing power onboard which is also restricted by the vehicle’s battery capacity.

Scanning Parametric Sediment Echosounder as Tool for Underwater Archaeological Prospection
ABSTRACT Underwater cultural heritage 3D prospection techniques, especially for remains that are partly buried in the ground, are only very rarely available and often can only be applied with considerable technical effort. To overcome this limitation, we evaluate a methodological adaption of widely used and available single channel parametric sediment ...
