With remotely controlled capabilities, a durable assembly, and a hull-integrated single beam echosounder, this USV brings automation and efficiency to any work site. The USV gains stability from its triple pontoon design and folds into thirds for one-person transport. Its manoeuvrable servo thruster steers the USV into previously unreachable zones with heightened precision and repeatability. Safely conduct hydrographic surveys from the shore and increase productivity in the field with the TriDrone™.
