    Two researchers on a small motorboat are handling a yellow and green autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) or torpedo-shaped instrument over open water. The image is captured with a wide-angle fisheye lens, giving a distorted panoramic view of the scene. Both individuals are wearing personal flotation devices and appear to be preparing to deploy or recover the underwater device.

    Amy Kukulya and Tom Austin, both from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, prepare to launch a Remote Environmental Monitoring Unit (REMUS) during Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) Fest 2007, hosted by the Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City and sponsored by the Office of Naval Research. Capable of performing rapid environmental surveys, REMUS also functions as an underwater mine reconnaissance device for the Navy's mine countermeasures program. AUV Fest is the largest in-water demonstration of unmanned underwater, surface, air and ground vehicles.

    A Naval Support Activity rigging crew is deploying an underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV) using a crane at a waterfront dock. Several personnel wearing hard hats and safety gear are managing lines and overseeing the lowering of the yellow-and-black ROV toward the water. The operation appears to be taking place at a calm inland waterway or bay with tree-lined shores in the background.
    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.
    A man standing on a yellow dock or platform is deploying or retrieving a yellow underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV) using a metal pole. The ROV, which appears to have 'MIT' markings, is partially submerged at the water's surface. The setting appears to be a calm open body of water during daylight hours.
