Description of USVs
SR-Surveyor M1.8
The SR-Surveyor M1.8 is a tightly integrated, compact hydrographic survey USV that features an EdgeTech 2205 sonar system for bathymetric and side scan imagery, a SBG Inertial Motion Unit, a Velodyne LiDAR Puck, and an optional ADCP. This USV is a highly portable, turnkey solution to advance your hydrographic and subsea imaging project (low profile, shallow draft, SUV-transportable).
SR-Utility 4.0 | SR-Utility 5.7
The SR-Utility 4.0 and the SR-Utility 5.7 USVs are configurable uncrewed catamarans. Each has a mounting pole for multi-beam sonar or other subsea sensors. Both vessels can accommodate a wide array of payloads.

Benefits of USV Operation
Utilization of uncrewed vessels offers many benefits over traditional maritime operations. Reduced carbon footprint (all of our USVs are battery powered), increased efficiency, and increased safety are among these benefits. USVs make it possible to gather intelligence without putting people in harm’s way. A USV has a lower profile than a traditional vessel and draws less attention in forward areas. An uncrewed vessel can also serve as a force multiplier.
Transport, Launch & Recovery
Each of our USVs is easily transported over the road via a discrete trailer requiring only a pickup truck or SUV as the tow vehicle. Global shipping via container is available. Our USVs can be launched from a boat ramp or crane.
