- The Project will enhance and upgrade the Memorial University of Newfoundland’s existing Explorer Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). More specifically, the sensor payload, communication, navigation and control system of the Explorer AUV will be further enhanced. This upgrade will enable the Explorer AUV as a technology platform ensuring its capability of carrying out research projects related to environmental monitoring in the oceans, and in particular projects related to detecting oil spills and micro-plastics with a variety of collaborators. As a result of these upgrades, the vehicle will also have a state of the art navigation and positioning systems. The open architecture of the Explorer allows researchers to periodically upgrade the operating profile and fault tolerance of the vehicle. This can include adding system elements needed to increase the level of autonomy for the vehicle, which in turn will allow more sophisticated missions to be completed.

- Le projet améliorera et modernisera le véhicule sous-marin autonome (VSA) Explorer de l’Université Memorial de Terre-Neuve. Plus précisément, la charge utile des capteurs, la communication, la navigation et le système de commande du VSA Explorer seront encore améliorés. Cette mise à niveau permettra au VSA Explorer de devenir une plateforme technologique pour mener des projets de recherche collaboratifs liés à la surveillance environnementale dans les océans, et en particulier, des projets liés à la détection des marées noires et des microplastiques. Grâce à ces améliorations, le VSA sera également doté de systèmes de navigation et de positionnement à la fine pointe de la technologie. L’architecture ouverte de ce VSA permet aux chercheurs d’améliorer périodiquement le profil de fonctionnement et la tolérance aux pannes. Cela peut inclure l’ajout d’éléments de système nécessaires pour augmenter le niveau d’autonomie du véhicule, ce qui permettra de réaliser des missions plus complexes.
