Abstract

Japan Marine Science and Technology Center (JAMSTEC) has developed several deep sea exploration systems and is operating them. These exploration systems are equipped with manipulators to get samples of rocks and marine life or deploy instruments at the deep sea floor. The manipulator system used underwater has different features from that used for industrial robots on land. In this paper, features and problems of the manipulator system for deep sea survey at JAMSTEC are described.
