Positions and depths from the ship's automatic data recording system. The ROV-system sprint 103 was equipped with two video- and one 36mm still camera, lights, flash-lights, compass, and parallel lasers providing a scale in the images, a tether-management system (TMS), a winch, and the board units. All cameras used the same main lens and could be tilted. Videos were recorded in Betacam-format.
