Eelume underwater Intervention vehicles are basically self-propelled robotic arms whose slender and flexible body can transit over long distances and carry out light inspection, maintenance and repair jobs in confined spaces not accessible by conventional underwater vehicles. It will be equipped with several types of sensors and tools needed to fulfil its mission. Kongsberg Maritime: Underwater Intervention Vehicle, Eelume
