SL40 | Unmanned Surface Vehicle丨OceanAlpha

Rapid installation with ADCP and echosounder

Instruments, like ADCPs, eco sounders and side scan sonars, within diameter of 5 cm to 18 cm can be rapidly installed to the dedicated cabin on the USV.

Automatic mission planning

Operator can pre-program the survey mission with the base station on the bank. The USV and instruments can conduct surveys autonomously and send back real-time data.
User can also drive the USV manually by a remote controller.

Intelligent collision avoidance

Equip with radar sensors, SL40 USV can detect obstacles and avoid collision.
In manual mode, user can observe water environment via real-time video to improve navigation safety.

Higher speed & tangling free

The innovative water jet thruster brings SL40 USV to top speed 5m/s and effectively avoid being entangled by water plants or debris.

Stable sailing

The trimaran hull design highly improve the sailing stability in high speed.
