The underwater robot has broken through the bottleneck that the submarine cable in the deep water area cannot be inspected

Recently, the underwater robot has been successfully developed, and the underwater robot has successfully broken through the bottleneck of the inability to inspect the submarine cable in the deep water area, which can greatly improve the intelligent level of submarine cable operation and inspection, and fill the technical gap
in China's submarine cable operation and maintenance.

It is understood that the underwater robot belongs to the important sub-project of the "Research on Key Technologies of Marine Power Transmission" project
.
The project was launched under the
current situation that domestic submarine cable operation and maintenance can only rely on auxiliary means such as water surface monitoring, and cannot intuitively obtain submarine cable operation environment information.
The underwater robot developed by the project can carry instruments and equipment to the seabed to carry out submarine cable inspection, fault location and other operations
.
The application of underwater robots to submarine cable operation and maintenance operations can replace the previous working mode of divers' underwater operations, and solve the problems of short manual operation time and high safety risk.
