ROV

Remote Operated Vehicles or ROVs are under water Robots that allow the controller to be located above the water. ROVs are connected to the topside via an umbilical link that house communications cables, and energy source and information transfer.

The primary use is to keep water safe by deploying ROVs to find any threats that might be hidden in the sea bed. ROVs are remotely controlled via ROV controller by operators on the surface, allowing them to access areas that are beyond human divers’ capabilities. ROVs consist of surface control station, where operators monitor and control the vehicle’s movements and submerged vehicle, connected via a tether or umbilical cord.
