Remus remote environmental monitoring

The SeaDog is also available in two configurations. A handheld version can be easily used by divers, while the AUV model is specifically configured for integration with underwater autonomous vehicles, such as the REMUS (Remote Environmental Monitoring Unit) shown in Figure 9.8. 

The U.S. Navy performed field tests which successfully demonstrated that an underwater version of the Nomadics sensor can detect a plume of TNT in real-time in the ocean over 100 metres from its source. In these tests, the SeaPup sensor was integrated with the REMUS (Remote Environmental Monitoring UnitS) unmanned underwater vehicle (Figure 6) and deployed in a series of successful missions in the Atlantic Ocean.
