Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0788969A1] The submarine has an outer body (3) immersed beneath the surface which holds two drive units (6) used to manoeuvre the craft. A central section water proof dome (5). The submarine is designed to float so that the dome surface just floats above the water. Radio antennae are mounted on the dome surface. The submarine carries TV cameras and detectors (8,9) one mounted in the outer body and the other on a cable lowering system (10,11) to allow views of the ocean bottom. Objects can also be recovered from the ocean bottom.
