AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle)

An Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) is a robot that operates underwater without human control. It is equipped with sensors and cameras to gather data about the ocean, such as mapping the seafloor, studying marine life, or monitoring environmental conditions. AUVs are used by researchers, environmentalists, and the military for exploration and scientific missions. They can travel long distances autonomously, following programmed paths, and transmit information back to their operators. AUVs are crucial for exploring underwater environments that are difficult or dangerous for humans to reach.
