The 4-axis manipulator is a soft-end effector and enhances versatility and precision by providing multi-directional control, allowing for intricate and efficient handling of objects in various applications.Optional: Soft end-effector for enhanced manipulation
-
Underwater metal detector: It is an essential tool for marine missions, utilizing electromagnetic fields to accurately locate metal objects beneath the water's surface.
Magnetometer: It serves as a key tool for detecting and mapping magnetic anomalies beneath the ocean's surface, aiding in various applications.
-
By emitting sound waves to the ocean floor, sonar systems generate intricate images of underwater landscapes and objects, facilitating efficient seabed mapping and target detection. In addition to a standard forward-looking multibeam imaging sonar, we also offer the option to install side-scan sonars.
-
DVLs (Doppler Velocity Logs) enable accurate underwater navigation, altitude maintenance, and real-time velocity measurement by analyzing Doppler shifts from acoustic signals reflected off the seabed. Additionally, they can assess current profiles for flow analysis. -
Short Baseline System (SBL) utilizes sound waves for measuring underwater depths and determining the global position of the underwater drone. Additionally, it can be outfitted for use by nearby divers.
-
A CTD sensor measures the conductivity, temperature, and depth of water with high precision, providing crucial data for determining essential physical properties of the environment
An underwater pH sensor plays a central role in marine studies, as it measures the acidity or alkalinity of the water and thus provides important data for monitoring the aquatic environment.
