CLEAN : Underwater drone developed to take over costly offshore wind farm inspections

The video discusses the development of remote technologies for inspecting and maintaining offshore assets, such as wind farms and hydrogen technologies, without risking human safety. It highlights the use of autonomous underwater vehicles equipped with cameras, sonar, and robotic arms to perform inspections and repairs. The system's autonomy allows for remote operation, reducing the need for specialized pilots or divers. This technology opens up new job opportunities and addresses recruitment challenges. The system can operate without cables, using acoustic communication, and allows operators to manage tasks at a higher level.
