Remotely controlled crawler underwater vehicle
BOTTOM CRAWLER WORK CLASS
Modular, multifunctional, underwater vehicle Bottom Crawler Work Class designed for extraction and transport of dangerous objects (UXO) located at the bottom of water bodies. Work is possible at a depth of up to 50m. This vehicle allows to eliminate divers from direct contact with a dangerous object (UXO, chemical weapons) and to take them in a way that does not pose a threat to people. Bottom Crawler, by precisely locating the object, exposing it, extracting it and transporting it to the surface – comprehensively performs dangerous work. The vehicle operator has the ability to work using augmented reality.
