SeaBotix SmartFlight™ vLBV 300 Demo

Unleash the power of SeaBotix vLBV

BlueZone Group has conducted a successful demonstration of Teledyne SeaBotix SmartFlight™ Automated Navigation. SmartFlight™ adds automated functions to the SeaBotix vLBV ROV and is available as an integrated option on new and as an upgrade for existing vLBV systems. SmartFlight™ features include:

Return to target

Waypoint navigation

Holding station

Orbit target

Seamless integration with AUV/Mosaic software

Single intuitive GUI with Navigation, Sonar, Video

Target tracking with Tritech Gemini Multi-Beam Sonar

An intuitive user interface allows seamless target data import functionality from other systems such as AUVs and mosaic software. Sonar tracking enables precise object-based holding station and target orbiting. The system offers waypoint navigation, programmable search, and auto-height.

The system employs sensor fusion technology that minimises hardware dependency while providing a full suite of automated features.

The Teledyne SeaBotix SmartFlight™ system has been used by the U.S. Navy explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) teams since 2014. SmartFlight™ is technically robust, easy-to-use, and very precise—qualities essential for working in a variety of high-pressure situations. This technology is commercially available today to inspect whatever is important to you—including pipelines, fish, risers, pylons, tunnels, harbors, and hulls.

SmartFlight™ unleashes the power of SeaBotix vLBV by simplifying and enhancing all types of ROV operations including pipeline inspections, surveying, search and recovery and underwater asset inspection. Operator training times are reduced and operator performance in missions is enhanced using the powerful features of SmartFlight™ to plan and conduct ROV missions.
