Research

   

Marine researchers the world over regularly employ ROVs in their scientific work to help them gain a greater understanding of such things as sea life and ocean currents, and to explore such things as ocean reefs, sea bottoms and underwater archaeological sites.

The quick deployment and proven versatility of Seamor ROVs frees researchers to concentrate more on actual research tasks rather than their piloting skills; and using ROVs allows exploration to depths beyond normal diving capability (as deep as 600 metres) for extended periods.

Seamor ROVs are helping scientists in a wide variety of fields including university and government department research projects such as underwater surveys, coral reef studies, marine habitat projects, and even exploring underwater shipwrecks with an eye on future preservation. The scientists appreciate the simple to use equipment, its high quality video images and maneuverability, and coupled with relatively low cost, which allows them to keep within strict research budgets.
