Saab UK announces that the Seaeye SR20 eWROV, its most advanced fully-electric work-class remotely operated vehicle, has successfully completed inshore water testing.
NYK, Nippon Paper Industries, Chinougijutsu, and Iwakuni Sangyo Unyu have conducted a successful trial of a remote-controlled robot that scrapes wood chips in the hold of a wood-chip carrier.
Equipped with thrusters, cameras, sonar and sensors for measuring water temperature, pressure and salinity, the vehicle climbed nearly 150 feet up one slope and descended the other.
This collaboration, funded by Innovate UK, will expand BladeBUG’s capabilities, allowing the robot to crawl turbine structures and test bolt integrity using ultrasonics.
Moreover, the companies agreed to continue considering and examining new opportunities to create highly innovative solutions and contents within the broader scope of a Digital Factory.
Engineers at the University of California San Diego have built a squid-like robot that can swim untethered, propelling itself by generating jets of water.
The latest round of testing of the BladeBUG inspect-and-repair robot for offshore wind turbine blades has successfully concluded at the Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Catapult’s National Renewable Energy Centre in Blyth.
