Imotus-S Hovering Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
Overview
Imotus-S is an open water hovering AUV for multi-influence marine vessel signature measurement. Operating as a fleet, the Imotus-S AUVs provide simultaneous measurements for acoustic and magnetic signatures without leaving station.
Imotus-S is built on a modular core platform, using ROS over Ethernet to communicate between the navigation sensors, main computer and payload modules.
Signature Measurement Overview
Cellula’s Signature Measurement System consists of a team of three or more Imotus-S subsea drones that can rapidly create an acoustic & magnetic check range at any location without requiring cables, diver deployment, or maneuvering into shallow waters.
More information coming soon.
Benefits
Availability
Imotus-S can operate in open ocean or littoral waters to complete marine vessel signature measurements without requiring the ship to leave station. On-shore infrastructure or underwater cabled deployments are not required.
Inter-Operability
Imotus-S is designed to be stored, operated, and maintained in a 20' ISO container. No additional modifications to the ship are required, allowing for quick adoption of added functionality.
Security
Signature measurement data is stored in an encrypted format on Imotus-S, only made accessible to the host platform. Detailed reports are provided to the end user including the acoustic & magnetic measurements and scan profiles.
