Abstract
|
|
|---|---|
| This chapter addresses recent developments of human-like robots designed to work as robotic divers, assuming hazardous activities currently carried out by human divers in hostile underwater environments. The risks involved in the most dangerous branches of the professional diving industry are highlighted. Current devices for underwater operations are described i.e., manned and unmanned vehicles, and recent developments of robotic divers are addressed. Finally, a functional prototype of an underwater anthropoid robot developed at CAR (CSIC-UPM) is presented. | |
