Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV)

The Increasing Importance of the Subsea for Modern Military Operations

Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are essential tools for exploring the vast, largely uncharted underwater world. These versatile systems support military, commercial, and scientific missions—from mapping the seafloor to detecting unexploded ordnance—offering reliable, autonomous performance in challenging marine environments.

COMET-300

MAN PORTABLE AUTONOMOUS UNDERWATER VEHICLE

COMET-300 is a two-man portable AUV designed to cover large underwater areas in a limited time and with high accuracy by offering precise real-time positioning and advanced sonar imaging.

Thanks to its acoustic communication system (RTsys core expertise) and Long Baseline (sparse- LBL) positioning algorithms, COMET-300 is able to navigate up to 20 hours. Its positioning accuracy is currently the best on the market, which provides the user with precise positioning information regarding the field data acquired from the drone's various sensors duringamission.

COMET-300 is the ideal solution for extensive monitoring and surveillance of various areas, whether it be for commercial, scientific or military applications

NemoSens

VERSATILE MICRO AUTONOMOUS UNDERWATER VEHICLE

NemoSens is a compact autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) designed for scientific, industrial and defence applications. Lightweight and modular, its open LINUX architecture allows users to develop their own navigation algorithm for greater flexibility and maximaluse.

Mission coverage can be extended thanks to the swarm technology and the possibility to deploy multiple AUVs. NemoSens is also compatible with all the RTsys product range such as the SonaDive diver held systems or beacons.

NemoSens integrates the latest upgrades of both hardware and software developments from the RTsys product range. Which makes it the most efficient and reliable micro AUV of its generation. Software functions and measurement sensors (within a 2kglimit) canbeadded ondemand, so getreadyto extend your range.
