“…Different approaches to navigation and the protection of instruments are also important to avoid the effects of acidity, considering the most hostile environments in the study region. Possible alternatives are seen in the work of Huy et al (2023), who presented a thorough review of the challenges and new technologies related to sensors and sensing methodologies for different types of underwater vehicles.…”

The Amazon basin is one of the largest hydrographic systems in the world, possessing a great diversity of natural resources in need of more sustainable water and environmental management. However, as much of what lies beneath the surface of Amazonian waters is still unexplored, underwater exploration technologies are seen as a means of research and monitoring. The present work therefore aims to answer two research questions: What are the current technologies that could be implemented for unmanned underwater research in the Amazon waters? What are the main limitations and existing alternatives for using unmanned underwater vehicles in the rivers of this region to provide more sustainable water and environment management? Our results demonstrate that remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are possible options in the short and long terms, respectively. The main challenges in implementing these technologies are related to the variations in hydraulic geometry, current velocities and turbidity of the rivers, as well as the preservation of the region's biodiversity. This research can be taken as a starting point for planners and decision makers seeking more sustainable underwater and environmental exploration of the Amazon river system.

“…Thus, visibility is reduced as turbidity increases because the higher turbidity increases the light attenuation and scattering intensity. In turbid water, the concentration of clay, silt, algae or other organic matter may affect the visual display of underwater devices (Huy et al, 2023).…”

“…Traditional underwater perception methods (sonic/optical) are frequently impaired in DOI: 10.1002/smll.202308491 turbid/dark underwater environments. [1][2][3] Meanwhile, the underwater perception equipment also suffers from heavy cost for maintenance and replacement, [4,5] which are the bottleneck in realizing effective, reliable underwater perception. Therefore, it is especially critical to develop an underwater sensor that can continuously function in complex underwater environments.…”

Developing desirable sensors is crucial for underwater perceptions and operations. The perceiving organs of marine creatures have greatly evolved to react accurately and promptly underwater. Inspired by the fish lateral line, this study proposes a triboelectric dynamic pressure sensor for underwater perception. The biomimetic lateral line sensor (BLLS) has high sensitivity to the disturbance amplitude/frequency, good adaptability to underwater environments and (relative) low cost. The sensors are deployed at the bottom of the test basin to perceive various moving objects, such as a robotic fish, robotic seal, etc. By analyzing the electrical signal of the sensor, the motion parameters of the objects passed over can be obtained. By monitoring signal variations across multiple sensors, the ability to sense different disturbance movement trajectories, including linear and angular trajectories, is achievable. The study will prove significant in forming an unconventional underwater perceiving method, which can back‐up the sonic/optical sensors when are impaired in complex underwater environments.
