Multibeam USV APACHE6

autonomousfor hydrographic surveying

The APACHE6 USV is a full-integrated innovative solution for 3D bathymetric survey, underwater object positioning, offshore construction, underwater archaeology, and wrecked rescue. The APACHE6 is powered with a high-performance dual propeller system ensuring a stable constant automatic cruise speed of up to 2.5m/s (7.6 fps). The survey projects can also be completed in manual mode using the APACHE6 remote control panel over a 2 km distance. The APACHE6 multibeam USV reduces survey time, improves work efficiency, and outputs high-resolution data always to match the most demanding marine survey project requirements. --- Additionally to the standard package that includes the remote control boat, single beam echosounder, and GNSS IMU sensor, the Apache 6 USV can be supplied with NORBIT multibeam echosounder and LIDAR scanner. Moreover, for detecting and distinguishing between fish and other debris underwater, the USV can also be equipped with a third-party fish finder transducer. The obtained data can be effectively used by researchers and engineers.
