The Tampa Deep Sea Xplorers LLC (TDSX) will develop a compact underwater light detection and ranging (LIDAR) system for integration into small remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) under a $128,918 Phase I Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project grant from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The Phase I SBIR project will prove the feasibility of reducing the size and weight of a LIDAR system for internal installation in micro or mini-ROVs and AUVs. Working with sub-awardee BeamSea Associates, TDSX aims to put a state-of-the-art underwater data collection platform into use on its Barracuda AUV. If successful, the compact LIDAR system could revolutionize the collection of archaeological, geographic, and cartographic seafloor data using small underwater vehicles. The NOAA SBIR program supports technological innovation through competitive awards to small businesses, in line with the goals of the Phase I SBIR project.
