The UNEXMIN project, in which EDM is a partner, aims to develop three robot prototypes for 3D cartography and geological data collection in flooded underground mining explorations. Unequalled in technology and long-range planning capacity, it is intended that these fully autonomous robots will gather information at much lower risk and with data reliability that would be unlikely to be achieved using traditional human diving techniques.

In this regard, the video promoting the project was launched:

EDM will provide access to the Urgeiriça Mine, one of the selected locations where the robots will be tested and evaluated under real conditions.
