Underwater GPS G2

Acoustic positioning system with record breaking performance

The Underwater GPS system utilizes a remarkably sturdy operational principle, incorporating numerous receivers. By harnessing the power of cutting-edge hardware and employing highly advanced software algorithms, Underwater GPS is able to outperform conventional positioning systems that are incapable of operating in challenging aquatic environments.

Description

Underwater GPS's exceptional performance is particularly evident in challenging environments such as:

  1. Shallow water: Our underwater positioning solutions are perfectly suited for operations in shallow water, where traditional remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) may struggle due to their size and weight.

  2. Enclosed tanks or pools: Our underwater positioning solutions can easily navigate within enclosed tanks or pools, providing high-quality data and insights for various industries such as aquaculture and oil and gas.

  3. Proximity to ship hulls: Our underwater positioning solutions are designed to operate close to ship hulls and other structures, providing valuable data and insights for maintenance and inspection purposes.

  4. Fully populated fish farming cages: Our underwater positioning solutions are ideal for use in fully populated fish farming cages, where traditional ROVs may disturb the fish or cause damage to the infrastructure.

  5. Subsea templates: Our underwater positioning solutions can easily navigate around subsea templates, providing precise data and insights for the oil and gas industry.
