PREFERRED TERM

RCV-150  

DEFINITION

  • The RCV-150 ROV was a remotely operated robotic submersible that was operated by HURL between 1998 and 2011. It was piloted from a shipboard station, receiving power and commands from the surface control console via a steel armored electro-mechanical fiber optical cable. The vehicle could operate to depths of 914 meters (3000 ft). It was equipped with two color video cameras with lights and a CTD which sent data directly up the wire. RCV-150 was primarily used as a video survey tool that could acquire extremely close-up views because of its small size and maneuverability.
