dtg3 rov precision thruster vertical movement

The precision thruster at the rear of the vehicle enables users to move up and down without utilizing the pitch function. With the precision thruster engaged pilots can make depth changes without any rotation of the ROV, making it ideal for the trickiest of observation and inspection needs.

Precision Thruster

The UHD 4K internal camera is easy to use, with live zero latency viewing on the handheld controller and a 270 degree rotating field of view. Switch to photo mode to snap photos up to 8 megapixels.

UHD 4K camera

With expert engineering and the help of gravity, the ROV’s outer shell and thrusters can rotate 180 degrees to perform lateral movement, while gravity holds down the internal semi-circle weighted frame. This allows the ROV to drive up, down, side to side, forward and backwards.

Extreme maneuverability

Deep Trekker ROVs are constructed with cast aluminum, anodized and epoxy coated for corrosion resistance. Its unique spherical design has inherent strength and combined with proprietary, no-maintenance thrusters. Deep Trekker’s clean-sheet design and expert innovation ensures the system will last for years. If you require upgrades or new capabilities, you can enhance your system with industry-specific add-ons and attachments.

Built to last

The high quality lens and proprietary image processing algorithms through Deep Trekker’s Bridge software provide users with an optimal underwater viewing experience including a wider field of view, enhanced clarity and auto colour correction.

Festetauet har bruddstyrke på 150 kg, så det er ikke noe problem å løfte det fjernstyrte undervannsfartøyet etter det. Du kan senke og løfte det fjernstyrte undervannsfartøyet etter festetauet og hente gjenstander med klypearmen ved å trekke opp på festetauet.

Kan jeg løfte og senke det fjernstyrte undervannsfartøyet etter festetauet?

Den håndholdte kontrolleren til det fjernstyrte undervannsfartøyet kommer utstyrt med en 7-tommers LCD-skjerm. Den lyse skjermen med høy oppløsning gir en portabel visningsopplevelse i høy kvalitet til én operatør. Av og til kan du imidlertid ha behov for en større skjerm for å vise video til en gruppe seere. Den håndholdte kontrolleren kommer utstyrt med en HDMI-utgangsport samt Ethernet-, SD- og USB-porter. Dette gir deg fleksibilitet til å koble til andre enheter. Alternativt tar det fjernstyrte undervannsfartøyet opp video og bilder til et SD-kort. SD-kortet kan enkelt tas ut og så kobles til andre enheter for visning.

Kan jeg koble kontrolleren til en større skjerm mens jeg fullfører et dykk?

Ja, så lenge tilbehøret er innen 40 gram nøytral oppdrift, kommer det ikke til å påvirke evnen det fjernstyrte undervannsfartøyet har til å manøvrere gjennom vannet.

Kan jeg legge til eget tilbehør til det, for eksempel et kamera med nøytral oppdrift?

The defining feature is the 260-degree revolving head at the front of the vehicle. In the center of this head is the ultra high definition camera that you see the view from on your controller, as well as powerful LED floodlights and a laser scaler. 
Adjust the angle of your camera, lights, laser scaler, imaging sonar and grabber to ensure optimal position for your application, such as sweeping an area with the imaging sonar in a search mission or looking above at the hull of a ship or to locate targets on the seafloor.

Revolving head

The ROV is propelled by six powerful thrusters, two of which are vertically mounted for precise vertical movements and depth holding, four of the thrusters are mounted horizontally and in a vectored configuration to allow for lateral movements. This configuration of thrusters is great for holding in heavier currents and for stable control when making fine adjustments while performing an inspection or survey.

Stable six-thruster control

The REVOLUTION is powered by two Lithium Ion battery tubes on the bottom of the ROV. These battery tubes or skis can be interchanged very quickly with the included spare set to keep your operations up and running. At the front of the skis are additional LED floodlights for even better illumination for your video.

Operation longevity

Our ROVs are controlled by our BRIDGE software, which enables you to see and record data from many different sensors all from a handheld controller. When you add positional sensors such as the USBL, you can see your position on screen via a Google map and record your position as it changes over time along with the video and your other sensor data. Imaging sonars are also integrated directly on the handheld, allowing you to see and record sonar data side by side with your position and video footage.

BRIDGE seamless sensor integrations

The carbon fibre shell, anodized aluminum and stainless steel body and sapphire lens cover make the ROV a very rugged and durable machine.

Durable construction

revolution rov magnetic coupled vertical thruster 

The thrusters utilize an innovative design called magnetic coupling, the propeller assembly and drive motor are connected together using magnets, meaning that the thrusters are very durable, they do not wear down over time and they do not require ongoing maintenance as other thrusters often do require oiling, greasing or regular replacement.

Magnetic coupling

Above the camera head is an optional mount for a multibeam imaging sonar. Use the sonar to get a visual through murky water or over longer distances, monitor your sonar footage live and record it alongside your video all on your handheld controller, no extra laptops or monitors required.

Direct sonar integration

Below the camera is a two function grabber, with interchangeable claws for sampling, measuring, recoveries or tool manipulation.

Divers are commonly used for the regular inspection work of underwater infrastructure in hydroelectric plants. While effective, diver inspections in the confined, dark and murky environments of energy plants can be incredibly dangerous.
