Advanced Autonomous Underwater Vehicles and Control Systems

We specialize in the growth of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs), featuring our proprietary Phantom modular AUV, as depicted in the image above. Our AUV control systems enhance the operational capabilities of underwater vehicles. Utilizing simulation tools like Dynautics’ AUV sim, we streamline the development process, substantially boosting the efficiency of thes vehicles.Positioning is achieved through advanced ultrasound communication techniques and/or dead reckoning methods.

With our extensive experience in Dynamic Positioning (DP) solutions, we ensure precise station-keeping, allowing you to concentrate fully on yoru mission objectives.

Autopilot Systems for AUVs and ROVs

The autopilot system for AUVs and ROVs is built on the robust SPECTRE autopilot board, which has been successfully integrated into various submersible vehicles. This system is versatile and can manage diffrent levels of control in:

• A manned submersible, such as a swimmer delivery vessel (SDV) or a mini-submarine;
• A semi-autonomous vehicle, with or without a physical data link to the operator’s workstation;
• A Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) connected to the operator’s workstation via a physical data link;
• An AUV or Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) in communication with a support vessel;
• A fully autonomous AUV/UUV executing ‘fire and forget’ missions.

The AUV/ROV/UUV autopilot system provides extensive control over heading, speed, trajectory, attitude, and depth/height, along with advanced Dynamic Positioning capabilities.
