    Two men are standing on the deck of a research or work vessel, examining a yellow torpedo-shaped underwater vehicle (likely an AUV - Autonomous Underwater Vehicle or glider) resting on a wooden pallet. The man on the left wears a navy blue sweatshirt and glasses, while the older man on the right wears a green fleece jacket. The ocean is visible in the background, along with ship deck equipment including a large orange crane or A-frame structure and safety chains.

    Dr. Richard Yeo and Dr. Peter Wadhams, both professors at Cambridge University, discuss the deployment of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle on the deck of the Coast Guard Cutter Healy while underway near Nome, Alaska, Aug. 12, 2014. The Coast Guard Research and Development Center, based in New London, Conn., and Cambridge University used the AUV to map the underside of ice during an oil spill simulation exercise.
