Norwegian world-leading robot technology is now ready for the next step. The technology is so advanced that NASA has contacted NTNU in Trondheim to collaborate. We are working on autonomy, self-governing intelligent underwater vehicles that can contribute to making it more efficient and lead to greater understanding of what is happening in the ocean area and provide faster response times, says Professor Martin Ludvigsen from AURLAB and the MMarin teknikk NTNUat NTNU. The most advanced of these is the snake robot from Eelume AS. Read TV2's report from when Minister of Research and Higher Education, Oddmund L. Hoel, visited the center (Norwegian).

After project presentations at NTNU campus Moholt it was demonstrations and showcases at Trondheim Biological Station (TBS). Applied Underwater Robotics Laboratory - AUR-Lab at NTNU has built up a research environment with Autonomous Underwater Vehicles - AUVs, Unmanned Surface Vehicles - USVs, Remotely Operated Vehicles- ROVs, subsea docking station for AUVs in the Trondheims fjord, as well as a control and operation room. AUR-Lab is open for research collaboration and ready to assist in various projects, both within research and industry. AUR-Lab is part of the NTNU SINTEF OceanLab-project.
