2 In collaboration with WHOI NDSF and DeepSea Challenger, develop a technologically advanced 11k HROV (ROV or AUV) for R/V Falkor, supporting: Robust access to abyssal and hadal zones for scientific research UHD / 3DHD / panoramic HD video acquisition and streaming Scientific data collection (seafloor mapping, chemical and thermal data collection, photomosaicing, etc.) Versatile scientific sample collection Object manipulation (e.g. collection and deployment of equipment) HROV will satisfy SOI operational requirements HROV will be optimized for operation on R/V Falkor HROV will support single body launch and recovery

3 Phase 0 Objectives Definition: Sep 2013 Nov 2013 Phase 1 - Conceptual Design: Dec Feb 2014 Phase 2 - Preliminary Design: Mar July 2014 System Requirements Review: May 14, 2014 Preliminary Design Review: July 23, 2014 Phase 3 - Final Design and Build: Aug 2014 Aug 2015 Phase 4 - Testing and Evaluation: Sep 2015 Mar 2016 Engineering Trials: Sep 2015, Jan 2016 Science Verification Cruises: Feb 2016, Mar 2016 Committed Scientific Deployments: mid-2016
