Revolutionizing Subsea operations: The launch of Advanced Swimmer Delivery Vehicles
Robosys Automation has introduced its groundbreaking subsea navigation and vessel control technology, known as Advanced Swimmer Delivery Vehicles (ASDVs), marking a significant milestone in maritime innovation.
Enhanced Transportation for dive Units
The ASDVs are designed to facilitate the safe and efficient transport of dive units to remote and challenging underwater locations. These vehicles operate in three distinct modes: surface, semi-submerged, and fully submerged. Initially, the ASDVs will be operated by a crew, supported by advanced navigational aids.
Integration of AI for Superior Navigation
Equipped with Robosys’ Voyager AI, the ASDVs will provide enhanced navigational capabilities and decision-making support for the crew. This sophisticated AI system is pivotal for ensuring safe operations in complex underwater environments.
Future Upgrades: Autonomous Capabilities
Upon the prosperous completion of their initial deployment, the ASDVs will undergo a phased upgrade to incorporate autonomous functionalities. This will enable self-navigation, return-to-base capabilities, and loitering operations, whether on the surface or submerged.
Strategic Partnerships and Contracts
This launch coincides with Robosys securing a substantial contract with an undisclosed international client for a fleet of these innovative Swimmer Delivery Vehicles, highlighting the growing demand for advanced maritime solutions.
Remote Operation and Monitoring
Once upgraded, the ASDVs will be capable of being remotely operated and monitored from various platforms, including a mothership, Ground Control Center (GCC), or a Remote Operation Centre (ROC), enhancing operational adaptability.
Voyager AI: Leading the Way in Maritime Technology
Voyager AI stands out as a premier maritime artificial intelligence software developed by Robosys Automation. It empowers operators with autonomous decision-making capabilities, including collision avoidance and obstacle detection, ensuring safe navigation.
Commitment to safer seas
Aditya nawab, CEO of Robosys Automation, based at the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton, UK, expressed enthusiasm about the launch: “We are thrilled to present our new subsea autonomous navigation and vessel control solution. Robosys has established itself as a leader in advanced maritime autonomy for surface vessels, making it a natural progression to extend these capabilities to subsea operations. This is an exciting growth that reinforces our commitment to creating safer, smarter, and more enduring seas.”
