working in challenging and hazardous conditions. but here at heriot—watt university, they're developing underwater robotic solutions to help take the strain. and they've come up with this — the orca autonomous drone. we've got our scanning sonar, a mechanical scanning sonar. that can see all of these structures and items around the vehicle at quite a long distance. we've got an acoustic modem. this means that when we don't use the tether, we can communicate with the robot using sounds underwater. and how does it move around in the water, is it with these propellers that i can see...

that little bit safer. with an ever—growing demand for renewable and sustainable energy sources, the infrastructure that provides that energy is becoming increasingly critical. now, at present, those facilities are often maintained by human divers working in challenging and hazardous conditions. but here at heriot—watt university, they're developing underwater robotic solutions to help take the strain. and they've come up with this — the orca autonomous drone. we've got our scanning sonar, a mechanical scanning sonar. that can see all of these structures and items around the ve...

Currently, 80% of the cost of offshore wind is spent on maintenance through manned ships and technicians to do inspection and repair, so it's easy to see how this robot could cut costs. but robots may also solve a practical issue as wind power expands. so, in the future, we are going to have not hundreds, but tens of thousands of wind farms. if you've got 10,000 wind turbines to inspect and if you have one person, one vehicle, you need 10,000 pilots, and you don't have them, they don't exist. we're going to need to replace or change the way we do things so that we can have several pilots monit...
