摘要：Owing to environmental constraints, it is challenging to stably conduct various missions or surveys of the seabed for a prolonged period in the marine environment. To address this challenge, several devices and technologies are being developed. In this study, we aimed to develop an unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV)—specifically, a towed underwater platform—that can be loaded and unloaded via joint operation with an unmanned surface vehicle, which can be connected to a wired cable to obtain a stable power supply and high-speed communication. In addition, various sensors for detection are employed to investigate the marine environment and conduct missions. Furthermore, we operated the developed UUV in actual waters, reviewed the results, and examined its practical operability.
