Products
Tethys ONE
Our flagship product, Tethys ONE, is modular and dual-mode - operable both as a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) and as an AUV mode. Its compact 35 kg design enables rapid deployment in tight spaces and diverse environments like rivers, offshore structures, and confined underwater infrastructures - Superior Robotic Navigation in Harsh Conditions: Tethys ONE excels where other systems fail—maneuvering autonomously even in turbid waters, strong currents (up to 2.5 knots), and low visibility. Georeferenced localization and omnidirectional movement make navigation precise and reliable in rough conditions - High-Level Automation & Fast Development: With advanced multi-sensor fusion and a modular platform enabling the integration of acoustic sensors, HD cameras UT and CP probes, cavitation cleaners, manipulators, and more, the Tethys ONE delivers high-resolution data collection and real-time live 3D mapping, dramatically boosting productivity and speeding up mission readiness. - Maximized Productivity & Safety: The system enables automated, stationary inspections in high-flow waters, reducing mission time, lowering operational costs, and eliminating dangerous tasks for divers.
