What We Do
The Oceanographic Systems Lab (OSL) is part of the Applied Ocean Physics & Engineering Department at WHOI. OSL is made up of a talented group of lab members, who make significant contributions to the growth of the marine robotics field by applying mechanical and electronic designs to create innovative autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). These remotely operated vehicles are able to have capabilities such as signal processing, underwater acoustics, embedded data acquisition, mapping systems and more digital electronics. The designs created by the lab are used to carry out a range of missions relating to scientific discoveries and defense.
REMUS Developers & Operators
Remote Environmental Monitoring UnitS (REMUS Vehicles), are low-cost autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) designed to operate with a laptop.
WHOI Oceanographic Systems Laboratory
Our lab is composed of a team of engineers, technicians and staff that design and operate REMUS vehicles.
Hydroid, LLC
Since 2001, several models of REMUS have been built by Hydroid in nearby Pocasset, MA, where the AUVs are available for commercial use.
