Executive Summary | In marine construction in Okinawa, underwater excavators with divers on board have been used for a long time because the seawater has high transparency, which makes it possible to recognize the situation by direct visual observation. However, with the current way, divers have to work near the underwater excavators. Thus, it takes large effort to ensure the safety of divers. Therefore, in order to contribute to the improvement of safety and productivity, we have studied the application of machine guidance system, which has been used in the land-based construction, to underwater excavators. |
