Nauticus Robotics Aquanaut
Nauticus Aquanaut combines autonomous underwater survey with remotely operated inspection and manipulation.
Nauticus Aquanaut combines autonomous underwater survey with remotely operated inspection and manipulation. According to the manufacturer, the robot can switch from seabed scanning to tasks using its manipulators. The electric robot operates without a fixed power or data tether to the surface. Sensor packages determine the measurements and imagery collected. An inspection project therefore needs measurement equipment, communications and mission design selected. Physical values come from the 2023 product sheet; component specifications and manipulator capacity are kept separate from the capacity of the complete underwater vehicle itself.
