FY 2020-21 · 2020-08-17
Summary
Kraken is building upon the success of previous ThunderFish AUV projects with the development of the next generation of the ThunderFish platform. This project will focus on the development and testing of the ThunderFish XL, which will be a 6,000m rated autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) capable of performing survey and inspection missions as a permanent subsea resident AUV. The primary objective of the SeaResT project is to develop the technology necessary to transit AUV operations from purely surface based launch and recovery to subsea resident operations.

Description (French)
Kraken s'appuie sur le succès des projets ThunderFish AUV précédents pour mettre au point la prochaine génération de la plateforme ThunderFish. Ce projet sera axé sur la conception et l'essai du ThunderFish XL, qui sera un véhicule sous-marin autonome (AUV) d'une capacité de 6 000 m, capable d'effectuer des missions de prospection et d'inspection en tant qu'AUV résident sous-marin permanent. L'objectif principal du projet SeaResT est de mettre au point la technologie nécessaire pour faire passer les opérations de l'AUV du lancement et de la récupération purement en surface à des opérations sous-marines sur place.
