<p>An underwater inspection and monitoring apparatus comprises at least one sensor 40 configured to function underwater and being supportable by a diver when in use. Each sensor is connected by a transmission line 22 to a remote, out of water, surface positioned processor and controller (30, Fig 2). Control signals for the at least one sensor are generated by the controller and signals generated by the at least one sensor are processed by the processor with the signals being passed along the at least one transmission line. This enables the processor and controller to be kept out of water making the sensor(s) easily portable and easy to use thereby reducing the risk of instruments being lost and making the inspection and monitoring process more safe, efficient and cost effective. Further, the values generated by the at least one senor may be displayed on the surface console and to the diver simultaneously and may be stored. A kit including the apparatus and a method of use are also disclosed.</p> |
