Advanced Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) with NORBIT Multibeam Echosounder
an innovative, fully integrated solution for 3D bathymetric surveys, positioning of underwater objects, offshore construction, underwater archaeology and wreck salvage
built around a triple-hull vessel and optimized for the Norbit™ multibeam echo sounder series
offers a fully autonomous survey mode, powered by field-proven CHCNAV absolute straight line technology, to follow a predetermined path even in adverse current conditions.
reduces survey time, improves work efficiency and produces high-resolution data to always meet the requirements of the most demanding marine projects.
lightweight for easy deployment, weighting only 15 kg without sensors, which allows for two operators to carry out most of remote deployment
Compact, high-performance USV designed for autonomous bathymetric surveys in shallow waters
comes standard with a D270 single-beam echosounder, RTK GNSS/INS sensors, a millimeter-wave obstacle avoidance radar system
tight integration of GNSS and INS sensors eliminates data outliers, and ensures consistent accuracy and reliability, even when navigating under bridges
integrates a built-in water temperature sensor to enable real-time sound velocity correction in response to temperature changes, resulting in superior depth measurement accuracy
can be equipped with water analysis probes to measure water quality parameters such as pH, temperature, conductivity, dissolved oxygen and more
weighs of only 10 kg (excluding sensors), which allows a single operator to effortlessly manage a variety of remote deployment scenarios
motor design enables surveys in diverse water conditions
Compact shallow-draft hull with a single-beam echo-sounder
portable shallow-draft hull USV with a single-beam echo sounder for bathymetric surveys of lakes, inland rivers, and coastal areas
combines a dual GNSS positioning and heading sensor, a stable and reliable hull attitude, and an IMU sensor, allowing uninterrupted survey while passing below bridges
Integrate high precision GNSS positioning and heading technology to ensure high accuracy bathymetric survey in fully autonomous mode
the master control unit provides seamless 4G communication, removing the limitations of traditional network bridge base stations and transmission distances, and making hydrographic survey easier
less than 1 m length and pocket-hulled vessel design, the APACHE 3 weighs only 7 kg without sensors
