Below are videos taken from our underwater cameras while performing mission tasks. Unfortunately the video compression seems to mess with the color a little.

Multiple tasks

Here the vehicle follows a pipe until it finds a box with a spade in it. Once it finds the spade it centers itself over the box and slowly lowers itself to an altitude of 1 meter. Once complete the vehicle then surfaces.

Pipe following videos:

The mission being run starts with a zigzag search until the pipe is found. Once found the vehicle centers itself over the pipe. Once the pipe is centered in frame, the vehicle grabs the heading and follows it. After the second pipe, the vehicle takes off for the safe (which you can't see in thedownward camera).
