About

We have developed two different small-size and low-cost underwater robots, with good underwater positioning:

  • Kraken. A small ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle, with umbilical cable) for heavy duty operations: stainless steel chasis, carbon fibre reinforced hull, and aluminium flanges. Maximum operating depth 200m. Maximum velocity 3 knots. Autonomy 2 hours

  • Lotan. A small AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, without umbilical cable), with aluminium chasis and flanges, and carbon fibre reinforced hydrodynamic hull. Maximum operating depth: 200 m. Maximum velocity 10 knots. Autonomy 6 hours.

Both robots can incorporate a large set of equipment and sensors, which include: camera, depth sonar, sonar scanner, Doppler sonar, side scan sonar, imaging sonar, multi parametric probes, etc.
