SpiderBot ROVs

The SpiderBot ROV by

Oceaneering International Inc was created to penetrate shipwrecks and achieved recognition during explo- ration of the Titanic by conducting underwater surveys of tight interior spaces. The SpiderBot ROV is suited for work considered too dangerous or inaccessible for divers, larger ROVs, or manned submersibles. The system provides high-resolution imaging, close-in inspection of subsea equip- ment, and documentation of ship- wreck and other debris. It is rated to 20,000 fsw and is driven by a pres- sure-compensated High Energy

Electron Accumulator Array power source, allowing for up to 18 hours of operation.
