ABSTRACT:
A thermal sensor system is provided in combination with a maneuverable vehicle, particularly in an underwater application. The system includes a transport pipe having an intake and output for the passage of seawater. A thermal sensor is connected to the transport pipe for detecting an actual temperature of seawater within the transport pipe. Sensor electronics are provided in connection with the thermal sensor, the sensor electronics conditioning signals output by the thermal sensor. The selective sampling by the thermal sensor may either be intermittent or continuous according to system needs. Further, a control device is connected to the sensor electronics, acoustic equipment and a depth sensor in connection with the maneuverable vehicle allowing change of the vehicle's course in response to these inputs.
