DEEP-SEA EXPLORATION
The UHV Manta (Unmanned Hybrid Vehicle) is a new generation of AUV designed to perform missions both at the surface and underwater. Capable of carrying additional payloads along with multiple sensors such as side-scan sonar, multibeam echosounder, current profiler, hydrophone, and HD/Photogrammetry cameras, the UHV Manta is intended for oceanography, naval defense, and coastal and offshore surveillance projects.
Three versions exist :
- 0 – 3m (USV/Sub-surface)
- 0 – 100m (USV/AUV)
- 0 – deep water (USV/AUV)
Applications:
