USV Details
Modular autonomous surface vessel

 

Modularity

usv-front

usv-front
  • Each hull made of three 2m-long watertight sections joined together
  • Design allows scope to re-use hull sections in different hull configurations (longer...larger)
  • Swappable hull sections guarantee ease of maintenance and low downtime

 

Versatility

usv-b
  • Battery + Solar panel powered propulsion guarantees large operational range
  • Electric engines allow for virtually silent and environmentally friendly operations
  • Hull sections can be pre-configured and fitted according to different mission requirements

 

Ease of transport, assembly and deployment

usv-a
  • Hull and upper platform sections are no longer than 2m
  • The whole vessel can be conveniently stored and shipped in pieces
  • Assembly of the vessel requires basic tools (screwdriver, wrenches, pliers) and no glue/adhesive
usv-front

 

Robust marine design

usv-front

usv-whole-side
  • Two steerable engines,and optionally,four rudders guarantee unmatched manoeuvrability
  • Redundancy in case of failure : Each central Hull section is independent. The catamaran can be manoeuvred only with one motor and one rudder.
  • Large flat surfaces available for safe transport of mission payload, or Solar panel installation.
