Abstract :
In this paper a towed semi-autonomous system for automatic tracking of underwater pipeline is presented together with some experimental tests of the pipeline sensing apparatus. This paper focuses, in particular, on the development of a new guidance system based on the differential magnetometers which is the output measurements in the feedback loop.
