Underwater ROV Software for Fish Cage Inspection
2021 44th International Convention on Information, Communication and Electronic Technology (MIPRO), 2021This paper deals with the development of control software for a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) as part of an automated fish cage inspection system in aquaculture. The ROV navigates autonomously around the fish cages streaming video to the topside computer that runs the algorithms for vertical rope detection.

New Technology in Underwater Inspection
SPE Offshore Europe, 1981Abstract The importance of a high standard of inspection and maintenance of offshore structures is evident from considerations of safety of personnel, prevention of loss of production due to shutdowns, or pollution of the sea due to oil discharges.

Development of underwater inspection system for dam inspection
OCEANS 2015 - MTS/IEEE Washington, 2015Deteriorations of social infrastructures have been progresses in Japan. To prevent accident due to its failing, effective inspection system is needed. We have been developing underwater inspection system for dam inspection which is called Dam Inspection System (DIS). It is composed by Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV), and Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV).

Underwater Inspection Using ROV
Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference, 2021Abstract ADNOC Drilling operates a growing fleet of 22 jack up units. These units require various inspections and tests to ensure that their integrity is maintained while conducting the drilling operations. One of these inspections is the underwater inspection which is required to be carried out twice every 5 years.

Development of an underwater riser inspection robot
Industrial Robot: An International Journal, 2013PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to describe a new multi‐sensor robotic system designed for riser, mooring lines and umbilical cables in situ underwater inspection. Due to the aggressive operation environment, such structures are susceptible to a broad spectrum of failure causes, such as aging, mechanical, chemical and thermal loads, hydrodynamic ...

An underwater robot for pipe inspection
Proceedings Fourth Annual Conference on Mechatronics and Machine Vision in Practice, 2002This paper describes the design of an autonomous mobile robot for use in the inspection of water-filled pipes. The design is based on ultrasonic communications, thus obviating the need for an umbilical cable. The control of the robot is distributed on a local area network which connects all the actuators and sensors. The robot has four legs, powered by

Inspecting the inside of underwater hull
SPIE Proceedings, 2009In order to demonstrate the possibility of identifying the material within ship's underwater hull, sunken ships and other objects on the sea floor tests with the 14 MeV sealed tube neutron generator incorporated inside a small submarine submerged in the test basin filled with sea water have been performed. Results obtained for inspection of diesel fuel

UNDERWATER SHIP HULL INSPECTION
Naval Engineers Journal, 1980ABSTRACTNavy managers need accurate information in order to make cost effective decisions. In the case of ship hull repair or maintenance decisions, the information can often be obtained through Nondestructive Examination (NDE) of the hull. Newly developed NDE hardware and techniques now permit many inspections to be performed on waterborne ships, thus
