Underwater refers to the region below the surface of water where the water exists in a natural feature (called a body of water) such as an ocean, sea, lake, pond, or river.
Three quarters of the planet Earth is covered by water. A majority of the planet's solid surface is abyssal plain, at depths between 4,000 and 5,500 metres (13,100 and 18,000 ft) below the surface of the oceans. The solid surface location on the planet closest to the centre of the orb is the Challenger Deep, located in the Mariana Trench at a depth of 10,924 metres (35,840 ft). Although a number of human activities are conducted underwater—such as research, scuba diving for work or recreation, or even underwater warfare with submarines, this very extensive environment on planet Earth is hostile to humans in many ways and therefore little explored. But it can be explored by sonar, or more directly via manned or autonomous submersibles. The ocean floors have been surveyed via sonar to at least a coarse resolution; particularly-strategic areas have been mapped in detail, in the name of detecting enemy submarines, or aiding friendly ones, though the resulting maps may still be classified.
A robot is a mechanical or virtual artificial agent, usually an electro-mechanical machine that is guided by a computer program or electronic circuitry. Robots can be autonomous or semi-autonomous and range from humanoids such as Honda's Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility (ASIMO) and TOSY's TOSY Ping Pong Playing Robot (TOPIO) to industrial robots, medical operating robots, patent assist robots, dog therapy robots, collectively programmed swarm robots, UAV drones such as General Atomics MQ-1 Predator, and even microscopic nano robots. By mimicking a lifelike appearance or automating movements, a robot may convey a sense of intelligence or thought of its own.
The branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation, and application of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing is robotics. These technologies deal with automated machines that can take the place of humans in dangerous environments or manufacturing processes, or resemble humans in appearance, behavior, and/or cognition. Many of today's robots are inspired by nature contributing to the field of bio-inspired robotics. These robots have also created a newer branch of robotics: soft robotics.

Shedd's Underwater Robotics program introduces teachers and students to science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) principles through the development and application of remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) to investigate aquatic environments. The Underwater Robotics Club provides educators with the knowledge, materials (an ROV kit worth of $1,000) and support to run their own after-school robotics clubs. The program ends with a fun-filled poolside event for teachers and students to test their ROVs. Then, Shedd holds the annual Midwest Regional Marine Advanced Technology Education (MATE) ROV Competition, open to all underwater robotics clubs. Learn more: http://bit.ly/1lErZxU

This video presents the development and motion control strategies for a small bio-inspired underwater robot that employs a pair of undulatory fins for propulsion. Each fin is comprised of three individually actuated fin rays, which are interconnected by an elastic membrane. An on-board microcontroller (Arduino Mega 2560) generates the rays’ motion pattern that result in the fins’ undulations, through which propulsion is obtained. The prototype, which is fully untethered and energetically autonomous, also integrates an IMU/AHRS unit (Advanced Navigation Orientus) for navigation purposes, a wireless communication module, and an on-board video camera. The video contains footage from experiments conducted in a laboratory test tank to investigate closed loop motion control strategies, as well ...

New autonomous robot technology helps identify dangerous limpet mines on a ship, saving humans from doing the dangerous job. Michigan Engineering Associate Professor Ryan Eustice has developed an autonomous robot that conducts optical real-time visual mapping and inspection of a ship's hull. This capability eliminates the need for human intervention and, consequently, dispenses any dangers that might be encountered. Furthermore, Eustice's autonomous robot does away with present day mapping and inspection methods, which are both time-consuming and imprecise. About the Professor: Ryan Eustice (http://name.engin.umich.edu/people/ryan-eustice) is an associate professor in the departments of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, and Mechanical...

Singapore-based researchers have built an underwater robot that looks and swims like a manta ray, using only single motors and flexible fins to propel it through water in a way uncannily like its biological cousin.
Alan with the U.S. NAVY at DARPA's Tech Expo shows us some tricked up and easy to build SeaPerch ROV subs with GoPro and other cameras for underwater driving fun and learning. "SeaPerch is an innovative underwater robotics program that equips teachers and students with the resources they need to build an underwater Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) in an in-school or out-of-school setting. Students build the ROV from a kit comprised of low-cost, easily accessible parts, following a curriculum that teaches basic engineering and science concepts with a marine engineering theme. The SeaPerch Program provides students with the opportunity to learn about robotics, engineering, science, and mathematics (STEM) while building an underwater ROV as part of a science and engineering technology curric...
Transcript: Meet the robotic snake of your nightmares. It's called the Eelume robot. Several Norwegian companies are collaborating to develop it for monitoring underwater equipment. The Eelume will hopefully reduce the need for big and pricey maintenance vessels. Its slender body can access hard-to-reach areas and even do some light work, like cleaning and adjusting valves. The robot will supposedly spend its whole life on the sea floor, though it looks like it needs a power source to work, for now. Let's just hope it doesn't get any ideas from "Terminator."

Underwater robots developed by researchers at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego offer scientists an extraordinary new tool to study ocean currents and the tiny creatures they transport. Swarms of these underwater robots helped answer some basic questions about the most abundant life forms in the ocean—plankton. The new study published in the Jan. 24 issue of the journal Nature Communications.

Matthew Johnson-Roberson Assistant Professor, University of Michigan February 05, 2016 Abstract Robust, scalable Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) algorithms support the successful deployment of robots in many real-world applications. Robotic platforms now deliver vast amounts of sensor data from large unstructured environments. In attempting to process and interpret this data, the underwater domain poses many unique challenges. This talk will present recent advances in perception techniques for the generation of 3D reconstructions over tens of thousands of square meters. Topics will include the generation of self-consistent poses, long-term localization, consistency of lighting through an attenuating medium, the visualization of gigapixel textured models using a novel state-o...

Underwater Robots! A field trip to the OpenROV HQ
Speaker/Performer: David Lang, Co-Founder, OpenROV Sponsor: CITRIS (Ctr for Info Technology Research in the Interest of Society) OpenROV is a open-source underwater robot. But it's so much more. It's also a community of people who are working together to create more accessible, affordable, and awesome tools for underwater exploration. The backbone of the project is the global community of DIY ocean explorers who are working, tinkering and improving the OpenROV design. The community ranges from professional ocean engineers to hobbyists, software developers to students. It's a welcoming community and everyone's feedback and input is valued. The project started in a garage in Cupertino, with a few guys who wanted to explore an underwater cave. After finding a global community of co-develo...
