Note(s): As underwater exploration and work continues to plunge to deeper depths, an increased emphasis is placed on the use of underwater vehicles equipped with specialized tools. These tools are often one of a kind, and must be designed to withstand and operate under the extreme conditions found in the deep ocean environment. For nearly 30 years, Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution's Engineering Division has been recognized as premier designers and builders of innovative ROV and submersible tool packages. Recently, engineers have also begun developing tools for AUV use.
