Marine Robots : Applications in Marine Archaeology
Abstract
This article explains how underwater robots have the potential to become companions (buddies) to divers, effectively assisting them by carrying tools and instrumentation and taking high resolution images under the commands of the divers. These robots can also guide divers to move to safe locations in case distress situations occur. However, humans are by nature curious and will never agree to have their eyes completely replaced by robot eyes. The article also explains how a single robot was used in Grande Islands of Goa to photograph the coral reefs
