How the systems connect

Vehicle, tether, sensors, pilot and support vessel.

Subsea work combines propulsion, power, communication, navigation, imaging and human decision-making.

01
See and measure
Cameras, sonar and sensors turn the underwater environment into usable data.
02
Move and hold position
Thrusters, buoyancy and tether management determine vehicle control.
03
Inspect and intervene
Manipulators, tooling and mission planning turn observation into practical work.
