<p>Automated apparatus for the control and/or brushing of hulls of ships or similar works. The aim is to constantly keep the tools (3, 4) at an optimum distance from the surface (7) to be treated or monitored. To this effect, actuation means (16, 14) capable of displacing the tool with respect to the surface are controlled by data processing means receiving data from sensors which are sensitive to the distance separating the tool from the surface. Preferably, a data processing control unit (19) is arranged at a fixed station and is connected to the tools and to the actuation means by a flexible umbilical tether (20). Conveniently, the actuation means act on wheels (5, 6) which run on the surface.</p> |
