ARROWS concluded at the end of August 2015 and proposed to adapt and develop low-cost Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) technologies to reduce the operational cost of typical underwater archaeological campaigns. The methodology used by ARROWS researchers identified archaeologists requirements for all the phases of a campaign. These were based on guidelines issued by the project Archaeology Advisory Group (AAG), which comprised of many European archaeologists belonging to the consortium. One of the main goals of the ARROWS project was the development of a heterogeneous team of cooperating AUVs; these comprised of prototypes developed in the project and commercially available vehicles. Three different AUVs have been built and tested at sea: MARTA, characterized by flexible hardware modularity for easy adaption of payload and propulsion systems, U-CAT, a turtle inspired bio-mimetic robot devoted to shipwreck penetration and A-Size AUV, a small light weight vehicle which is easily deployable by a single person. The project also included the development of a cleaning tool for well-known artefacts and maintenance operations. Results from the official final demonstrations of the project, held in Sicily and in Estonia during Summer 2015, are presented in the paper as an experimental proof of the validity of the developed robotic tools.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Design and Testing of an Innovative Cleaning Tool for Underwater Applications(SAGE Publications, 2016) Gündoğdu, Hilal Tolasa; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Taner, Barış; Ridolfi, Alessandro; Costanzi, Riccardo; Allotta, BenedettoThe aim of this work is to describe the development of an innovative cleaning tool for underwater applications, to be used in particular in the field of underwater archaeology. This work takes place in the framework of the EU FP7-funded ARROWS project. ARROWS adapts and develops low-cost autonomous underwater vehicle technologies to significantly reduce the costs of underwater archaeological operations, covering the full extent of archaeological campaigns. The project deals with underwater mapping, diagnosis and cleaning tasks. During the first half of the project, a cleaning tool prototype, able to be mounted on underwater vehicles, has been worked out: this cleaning tool will be exploited not only during research missions but also for the periodic monitoring, controlling and maintenance activities of well-known underwater archaeological sites (e.g. periodic cleaning operations).Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 4An Innovative Cleaning Tool for Underwater Soft Cleaning Operations(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Gündoğdu, Hilal Tolasa; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Taner, Barış; Ridolfi, Alessandro; Costanzi, Riccardo; Allotta, BenedettoThis work takes place in the framework of the EU FP7 funded ARROWS project. In ARROWS project, low-cost autonomous underwater vehicle technologies are adapted and developed to significantly reduce the costs of underwater archaeological operations, covering the full extent of archaeological campaign. The project aims to deal with underwater mapping, diagnosis and cleaning tasks. This paper, specifically, describes the development of a cleaning tool (CT) to be used in cleaning underwater archaeological sites. This cleaning tool will be exploited not only during research missions, but also for the periodic monitoring, controlling and maintenance activity of well-known underwater archaeological sites (e.g. periodic cleaning operations). In this paper, the design criteria, working principles, the design and the performance tests of the developed CT are explained in details. The performance results are discussed in the final section.
