Universitat de Girona
Since 1992, the Underwater Vision and Robotics Lab of the University of Girona (UdG) is devoted to the research related to the areas of computer vision, opto/acoustic image processing, intelligent control architectures and underwater robotics. The UdG team works in the research and development of autonomous underwater robots for field operations, where imagery (both optical and acoustic) plays an important role. Several prototypes have been developed: GARBI, URIS, ICTINEU, SPARUS, GIRONA 500 and SPARUS II, the latter two being currently operative and commercialised by the recently created UdG Spin-Off company Iqua Robotics. Map-based navigation, advanced image processing techniques for 2D and 3D optical mapping of the seafloor, SLAM with underwater robots using both acoustic and/or video images, and online motion planning are currently active research lines of UdG with promising results. The group has a strong experience in Intervention AUVs, being GIRONA 500 one of the few available AUVs in the world with the possibility of integrating an underwater manipulator. Also, UdG has participated 3 times in the Underwater Robotics Competition (SAUCE), winning 2 of the editions. It has also participated and won the last 2 editions of EURATHLON being the winner of the 2014 edition of the AUV competition and member of the winner team of the EURATHLON grand challenge. UdG has participated in many research projects on underwater robotics at national level and European level.

Iqua Robotics
Founded in 2016, IQUA Robotics is devoted to the commercialization of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and the creation of innovative tailor-made solutions according to customer needs in underwater robotics. IQUA Robotics is a start-up company emerged from the Girona Underwater Vision and Robotics Lab. Therefore, R&D is a priority for IQUA and its close collaboration with the University gives it the possibility to implement in its products state-of-the-art technologies in underwater robotics. It is located in the Science and Technology Park of the city of Girona, in the region of Catalonia (Spain), close to the Mediterranean sea. The company is currently commercializing in exclusivity the following technologies: SPARUS II AUV: a reconfigurable, lightweight, ROS driven, with hoovering capabilities and medium-sized payload area Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) with capacity to navigate down to 200m deep. Its features make it ideal for research and exploration of the seafloor, specially for missions where it is necessary to acquire high resolution images in a short period of time. The reduced size and weight of the SPARUS II makes possible the deployment and recovery of the vehicle from small boats, or even from the shore. GIRONA 500 AUV: a reconfigurable, lightweight, ROS driven, with hoovering capabilities and large payload area Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) with capacity to navigate down to 500m deep. Its features make it ideal for research and exploration of the seafloor, specially for missions where stability is a must. IQUA Robotics also develops custom solutions in underwater robotics and equipment for their customer’s special needs.
