Problem solving
ACUA’s modular autonomous platforms provide a scalable and persistent presence for distributed maritime operations, ocean data collection and monitoring of critical national infrastructure. Implementation areas include seabed and asset integrity surveys, environmental, infrastructure monitoring, border control and security, communications relay, and submarine detection.
Value
- Space: platform enables safe deployments in up to 3m significant wave heights
- Weight: deployment of heavy payloads of up to 4 tonnes
- Power: up to 1 kW continuous power for payload for third party systems and sensors
- Stability: multi-week persistence and enhanced seakeeping performance versus a monohull vessel for improved data collection
- Persistence: the stable SWATH platform enables increased operational availability in higher sea states
