Robosys Automation has launched a first-in-class AI-supported USV Autopilot.
Robosys’ Voyager AI Autopilot will convert unmanned surface vessels (USVs) into fully autonomous craft, whether new build or retrofit.
The Robosys Autopilot module integrates with Robosys’ Voyager AI Survey – part of the Voyager AI software suite – which enables remote and autonomous heading and speed control.
It also enables other mission modes for navigation and vessel control specifically for hydrographic and oceanic surveying operations.
Robosys developed the Voyager AI Autopilot to meet the demands of the 3m to 12m electric drive survey USV market.
In addition to the latest electric drives, the system also works with both analogue and digital steering systems. Robosys’ Voyager AI suite can be scalede to full advanced autonomous navigation, integrating with third party steering, drive, and motor control systems.
“The system is ideally suited to a large range of survey missions including for ocean and offshore survey platforms and provides a cost effective and easy onboard system integration into a manufacturer’s often complex integration protocols and messaging,” explained Nigel Lee, CSO of Robosys Automation.
Robosys’ Voyager AI software delivers autonomous navigation and remote control for unmanned surface vessels’ (USV) control systems at various levels of autonomy.
