MTS Committee Webinar: Sensing the Deep – Sensors & AUVs for Deep Sea Exploration & OperationsDescription:Kongsberg Discovery produces a range of AUVs used as sensor carriers to obtain high resolution data from the seabed. Recent results showing the detection of polymetallic nodules on synthetic aperture sonar images will be presented. Other examples with particular relevance to marine minerals will be presented, e.g. sediment cloud monitoring possibilities. Date and Time:Wednesday, May 22, 2024 | 4:00 - 5:00 PM EDT Presenter:Dr. Berit Floor Lund, Kongsberg Discovery Dr. Ing. Berit F.
