Abstract

This article is devoted to a state of the art on mobile multi-robot systems in the underwater domain. It start with the history of underwater robots as well as their applications in various fields, then focus on underwater vehicles different categories charactheristics and properties, their appearance and their applications. Subsequently, the design of an autonomous underwater inspection vehicle is presented together with its functions, movements and control system.
