Abstract
    The Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) Genesis is an underwater robot that is deployed internationally from research vessels for deep sea investigations. Genesis is used to film and take samples from eg. deep sea canyons, cold-water coral reefs, carbonate mounds, mud volcanoes, and cold seeps. Also nationally the ROV Genesis is deployed from the RV Simon Stevin to observe ship wrecks, biodiversity and bottom features of the shallow North Sea.
