| Abstract: | Ocean survey is more difficult than land-based investigation, since the
underwater vehicles are susceptible to being swept away by sea currents.
Present study proposes a new concept of underwater vehicle, in which the robot
is moored by a tether and utilizes the sea current for movement. Two tether
mooring type of underwater vehicles, named “Anchor Diver I” and “Anchor Diver
II”, will be introduced in this paper. Anchor Diver I is an AUV (Autonomous
Underwater Vehicles) developed for long-term ocean survey and Anchor Diver II
is a ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicles) which moves with a principle similar to
flying a kite in the sky. |
