The present invention relates to a remotely operated vehicle. The remotely operated vehicle includes a tidal current generating unit generating electrical energy using tidal current generated in the seafloor and uses the electrical energy produced by the tidal current generating unit as an auxiliary power source with respect to a main power source. Therefore, the remotely operated vehicle is capable of supplying the electrical energy produced by the tidal current unit when it is impossible to supply power through a power cable in order to stably navigate underwater. 본 발명은 원격 조종 무인 잠수정에 관한 것으로, 해저에서 발생하는 조류를 이용하여 전기 에너지를 생산하는 조류 발전 유닛을 구비하고, 조류 발전 유닛을 통해 생산된 전기 에너지를 메인 전원에 대한 보조 전원으로 사용하도록 함으로써, 전원 케이블을 통한 전원 공급이 불가능한 경우에도 조류 발전 유닛에 의해 생산된 전기 에너지를 공급할 수 있어 더욱 안정적으로 수중 항해가 가능한 원격 조종 무인 잠수정을 제공한다.
