Overview
Aquanaut is an unmanned underwater vehicle that can transform itself from a nimble submarine designed for long-distance cruising into a half-humanoid robot capable of carrying out complex manipulation tasks. It can inspect subsea oil and gas infrastructure, operate valves, and use tools. The all-electric vehicle operates completely untethered without support ships, can travel more than 200 kilometers in submarine mode, and has a maximum operational depth of 300 meters.
