In the shallow water, an underwater transportation utility for diver is an effective tool for the ocean space utilization, and a Diver Transport Vehicle(DTV) is one of those utilities. The project which started in summer of 2000 is supported by the Korea research Council of Public Science and Technology. The objective of the project is to develop design techniques for DTV integrating the available technologies of KRISO research divisions. In this, the development of DTV is introduced.
