2. Underwater thruster - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwater_thruster

   BlueROV2 with electric thrusters. Electric thrusters are mainly used on battery operated underwater robots such as AUVs, submarines, and electric ROVs. Electric thrusters usually use brushless DC or permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM). These motors may be sealed within air- or oil-filled cavities, or use a flooded design that allows ...

3. Rinspeed sQuba - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rinspeed_SQuba

   The sQuba is a zero-emission, [4] all electric vehicle which uses three electric motors, one for land travel, two for water. It drives on land powered by its electric rear-wheel drive powertrain, using rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. Upon entering water, it floats on the surface until the operator floods the interior to submerge it.

4. Diver propulsion vehicle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diver_propulsion_vehicle

   hobbyist-built DPV with T500 thrusters . A DPV usually consists of a pressure-resistant watertight casing containing an underwater thruster, or a battery-powered electric motor, which drives a propeller The design must ensure that the propeller cannot harm the diver, diving equipment or marine life, the vehicle cannot be accidentally started or run away from the diver, and it remains ...

5. REMUS (vehicle) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REMUS_(vehicle)

   It has a battery endurance of up to 110 hours and a range of up to 275 nmi (509 km), depending on installed modules, and a sprint speed of 8 knots (15 km/h). With a synthetic-aperture sonar installed, battery life is reduced to 78 hours with a range of 200 nmi (370 km). Design missions include mine countermeasures, hydrographic surveys ...

6. Remotely operated underwater vehicle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remotely_operated...

   ROV at work in an underwater oil and gas field. The ROV is using a torque wrench to adjust a valve on a subsea structure.. A remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROUV) [citation needed] or remotely operated vehicle (ROV) is a free-swimming submersible craft used to perform underwater observation, inspection and physical tasks such as valve operations, hydraulic functions and other general ...

7. Autonomous underwater vehicle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_underwater_vehicle

   Most AUVs in use today are powered by rechargeable batteries (lithium ion, lithium polymer, nickel metal hydride etc.), and are implemented with some form of battery management system. Some vehicles use primary batteries which provide perhaps twice the endurance—at a substantial extra cost per mission.
