2 Outline The Hybrid ROV Ariane EM2040 integration and operation First surveys with Ariane Feedbacks on EM2040 use on Ariane Perspectives 2

3 Hybrid ROV Ariane (2016) Small ROV with onboard battery and light tether (fiber optic link) : Costal operation from non Dynamic positioning capable light vessel Reduced operational cost, Easy access to ship time Perform tasks on all seabed morphology, Optimized for dives on hilly seabed : canyons, cliffs and steep inclines Weight Features 1,8 tons with payload ~220kg Size 2800*1850*2130 mm 3 Depth Speed Autonomy Up to 2500m 0-2 knot 4 8h 22/11/2018 3

4 Hybrid ROV Ariane Winch Load bearing cable (0-2500m) Traction tether (~30m) Depressor weight Float Light tether (0-400m) «Clever» tether management for ROV operation (inspection, intervention) 22/11/2018 4

5 Hybrid ROV Ariane Winch Load bearing cable (0-2500m) Depressor weight Traction tether (~30m) Handling tether rupture: Onboard battery Onboard computational power Float Light tether (0-400m) 5

6 Two operational configurations 1. Exploring and Sampling configuration (nov. 2016) 7 function electric manipulator 5 function electric manipulator Sampling tools bay (105 litres) Faunal specimen sampler / sediment sampler Digital cameras (Video HD, Still 24 Mp) 6

9 EM2040 innovative integration Tilt of Tx and Rx transducers: adjustable angle 0 /45 /90 before dive

10 EM2040 surveys conditions with Ariane Typical knot (0-2 knots) Typical 5 m to 50 m altitude (1-100s m) EM (single Rx) Operating Frequency 300 khz 400 khz Ariane Altitude 50 m 30 m Mode CW CW Sectors 3 3 (1 to be tested) Angular opening Beam width 1 0,7 Swath width ~250 m at alt. 50 m ~ 15 m at alt. 5 m ~ 35 m at alt.10 m Nb of soundings per ping 400 (HD) 400 (HD) Water column log Synchronization with DVLs emissions Immersion data filtered by inertial unit 10

11 3D Real time visualization (raw data) Cloud of dots: Bathymetry / Imagery & Water column First analysis and adaptation of the survey during dive 11

12 Acoustical and Optical surveys with Ariane EM2040 Altitude : 50m coverage ~ 1.5 km² (decimetric accuracy) Altitude : 5m coverage ~ 0.1 km² (centimetric accuracy) Optical survey (up to 10 m depending on turbidity) Altitude : 8 m coverage ~ 0.04 to 0.06 km² (1 pixel ~ 1,2mm) Altitude : 5 m coverage ~ 0.01 to 0.02 km² (1 pixel ~ 0,7mm) Altitude : 3 m coverage ~ to km² (1 pixel ~ 0,4mm) ~ 1 football stadium (0.007 km²) 12

17 CARTOHROV Campaign: MBES at 45 Raw data on viewer First 3D maps made using freeware (non georeferenced) Need to adapt IFREMER post-treatment softwares

18 Feedbacks on EM2040 use on Ariane Troubles with simultaneous PU logging & real time data visualization : Communication losses with Tx and missing pings Only when WC Log is ON Happens only on new slim PU Temporary solution: make our own logger on Ariane embedded computer.kmall file: be able to use k-controller on linux? PU logging (not using SIS): No new.all file when stop/start survey 18

19 Perspectives Real time interactive survey on ROVs: 3D survey visualization, warnings to operator (data quality, object of interest ) Smart surveys on AUVs using real time data processing: Automatically adapt the MBES configuration, AUV trajectory, AUV tasks (Autonomus mission controller) Detection Resume suspended tasks Multibeam bathymetric survey and onboard data processing Close range optical survey
