…But our robot doesn’t get tired and easily works at night.” “The robot consists of a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) and has an underwater arm that can be as long as 3 m [9.8 ft.], and we have personally developed the hardware and software,” he said. “We will spend the rest of this year further developing and fine-tuning, because we know that operational reliability from Day 1 is alpha and omega.”

…that enables “coupled control” of a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) and robotic manipulator through a single control system. The Coupled Locomotion and Manipulation System, or CLAMS Project, will combine the control systems for the robotic arms and the ROV into one unit, improving coordination of the underwater manipulator and the ROV’s movements, said the company. “The goal of CLAMS is to improve control of our RE2 Sapien Sea Class arms mounted on the VideoRay Defender ROV by addressing the two components as a unified system,” stated David Lee, director of product management at RE2 Robotics. “This will allow topside operators…

…and accelerate deployment and monitoring of remotely operated vehicles (ROVs). “Our startup is about a year old, and our goal is to make innovation in the space more rapid,” Cross told Robotics 24/7. “We came out of OpenROV, and when others decided to take a consumer route, we went down a platform route. RTI Connext 6.1 is a big part of that, and I've used Connext for seven years.” “At OpenROV, we had achieved the goal of making ROVs more widespread, to become the DJI of the ocean, and we sold a few thousand of them,” he recalled. “At the…

…of real-time challenges they will face while working onsite. “ROVs have demanding deployment schedules and operating environments,” says Barbieri. “It was important for the company to limit delays caused by damage during training and ensure maximum performance the moment they deployed the robot.” This new type of training program is already gaining traction with Oceaneering’s Norwegian office, who are looking to leverage simulation-based training for their globally deployed ROV pilots. “Based on preliminary data, Oceaneering is expecting hot-stab operations 30% faster and an increase in mobilization time of at least 20%.” Sources: Press materials received from the company and additional…
