    A crew of four workers wearing hard hats are operating a Palfinger Marine crane aboard a vessel at a waterfront facility to deploy or recover a yellow torpedo-shaped autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). The AUV is suspended by a rigging harness attached to the crane hook over the water alongside the dock. The setting appears to be a military or research installation based on the visible infrastructure in the background.

    The Midsize Automated Research Vehicle (MARV) is hoisted aboard Project Support Craft (PSC) 12 following pierside testing during Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) Fest 2007, hosted by the Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City and sponsored by the Office of Naval Research. MARV is a AUV providing the latest processing technology, a highly accurate navigation system, built-in portable tracking, and acoustic, ethernet, and RF communications - all in a reconfigurable package that allows easy payload integration. AUV Fest is the largest in-water demonstration of unmanned underwater, surface, air and ground vehicles.
