10 AUV : Autonomous Underwater Vehicle <Characteristics> Carrying out a mission autonomously without direct human intervention Untethered to mother ship Going underwater freely because of no cable restriction Ability of continuous wide-area survey BUILT-IN POWER Duration depends on the energy capacity <Elemental Technologies> Navigation Autonomous control, Navigation/Positioning, Sensing Energy Battery, Fuel Cells, CCDE(Closed Cycle Diesel Engine) Operation support system Launch and Recovery System, Acoustic Positioning System 11

11 AUV : r2d4 Summary The Autonomous Underwater Vehicle r2d4 was constructed in r2d4" inherited the software and functions from its predecessor "R-One Robot". But compare to "R-One Robot", r2d4" is half a length, and a quarter of weight, and its function is much superior as it is capable to be operated from a small vessels. Moreover, with its excellent intelligence, it can navigate underwater in accordance with the preprogrammed course. And it also can fix the survey course by itself when it collects the abnormal data from the surroundings. Max depth rating: Dimension: Weight in air: Speed: Endurance: Power Primary items 4000m L4.4m B1.1m H0.8m 1630 kg 3 kts 60km (12 hrs) Rechargeable Lithium Ion Battery

12 AUV : AQUA EXPLORER Series Summary "Aqua Explorer" Series is the small Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) for tracking of submarine cables. It is expected to be used for survey of the condition of buried cables, searching for the fishery resources, and extensive survey of underwater environment. "AE2000"is the advanced vehicle of "AE2". "AE2000" has twice endurance of AE2 and can dive to 2000m. Primary items AQUA EXPLORER 2 AQUA EXPLORER 2000 Max depth rating: 500 m 2,000 m Dimension: 3.0L 1.3W 0.9H m 3.0L 1.3W 0.9H m Weight in air: 260 kg 300 kg Maximum Speed: 3 kts 3 kts Endurance: 8 hrs 16 hrs Power: Rechargeable lithium ion battery Rechargeable lithium ion battery Picture Transmission: 32 kbt/s 16 kbt/s AQUA EXPLORER 2 AQUA EXPLORER 2000

13 AUV : AE Purpose Inspection of underwater cabling and seabed surveying before cabling 2.Feature/Function Cable-tracking and burial inspection of cable Consecutive photographing of seafloor 3.Operation concept surfacing Communication with acoustic device Max: 2000m diving Underwater cabling Making a search for cabling deballast Inspection of underwater cabling
