Summary:
The Lander is an underwater research platfonn that is capable of carrying a variety of scientific instruments. The largest instrumental package that can be attached consists of a continuous wave laser transmitter, a pulse modulated laser transmitter, an Altimeter, an AC-9 optical sensor, a conductivity temperature and depth sensor, an LISST optical sensor, a GPS beacon and an acoustic modem. The continuous wave laser transmitter housing consists of a variable power single mode low noise OEM laser and a galvanometer scanner and is mounted on a pan and tilt unit. The rest of the instruments are attached to the frame of the Lander using various fixtures. There is also an acoustic release attached to the back of the frame which is to be used for retrieval purposes.
