Subsea
Tech, a designer, manufacturer and supplier of marine and underwater
intervention and instrumentation systems unveiled at Milipol 2013 (the
International Exhibition of Internal State Security which was held in
Paris from November 19 – 22, 2013) the CAT-Surveyor, an Unmanned
Surface Vessel (USV) designed for inland and harbor waters reconnaissance. |

The
CAT-Surveyor is a catamaran type USV, with tele-operated or automatic
navigation mode, allowing hydrographic data acquisition or underwater
port and inland waters surveillance. This USV has the unique capability of deploying a mini-ROV such as Subsea Tech’s “Observer” which comes with high definition cameras and optional imaging sonar for turbid waters. With its open architecture and high-speed PC to PC communication the system allows to easily integrate and deploy mission-specific tools such as video cameras, side scan sonars, multibeam sonars, acoustic cameras, sediment sounders, magnetometers, physico-chemical sensors. Its payload is 80 kg and its endurance is twelve hours. The onshore pilot station allows visualizing and real-time controlling of all embedded software features through a Wifi link. |
