Kraken Wins Robotics as a Service (RaaS) Contract from Government of Canada
maintain an advanced sonar imaging and data storage capability for all three coasts, and to deploy this capability to national and international areas of interest. Under the contract, Kraken will deploy its KATFISH towed SAS sonar system and will integrate a Kraken Light Weight SAS (LW-SAS) onboard a Hydroid REMUS 100 Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) owned by FDU-A. This contract will be completed by March 31, 2022
ADCPs & DVLs: Recent Tech Developments
. Recently, leading manufacturers have brought creative developments to the field. Teledyne RDI, the successor to the first company to commercialize the ADCP, continues to deliver key technologies, especially DVLs, for undersea vehicles. One of the most common unmanned undersea vehicles in service is Hydroid’s REMUS. This vehicle typically employs Teledyne’s compact DVL in the original configuration of four transducers mounted in a ring. The DVLs in these vehicles augment the GPS positions, recorded at the surface, and often inertial motion measurements to assist the vehicle in tracking

its search patterns to account for currents. Black CAT, which hosts a version of D2CAF and is used for reacquisition, is equipped with a Teledyne Blueview 900 forward-looking sonar (FLS), optical camera, Blueview 2.25MHz multi-beam 3D sonar, and ARIS camera. CMRE also has a pair of Konsgberg Hydroid REMUS 100 vehicles with sidescan sonar and multi-beam echosounder (MBES) for reacquisition, and an IQUA Robotics SPARUS UUV with ARIS for reacquisition and simulated neutralization.If MUSCLE cannot communicate directly with one of its collaborating vehicles, it can use the gateway buoy on a USV such

At the event Neptune was present on the Royal Navy’s two Hydroid REMUS 100 AUV systems, two OceanServer Iver AUVs and one ASV C-Worker 5 USV; it was also used with the U.S.© Office of Naval Research, NSWC PCD operated Hydroid REMUS 100 AUV systems; and Defense Research Development Canada’s OceanServer Iver AUV and SeaRobotics USV. The USVs communicated

in various environments; from lake, estuarine and coastal zones to deep ocean areas. The flagship profiler is the VMP-6000, a completely autonomous profiling robot that can can prove turbulence levels in the deep ocean down to depths of 6000 m. The MicroRider is routinely used on AUV platforms such as Hydroid’s Remus AUVs and glider platforms such as the Teledyne Webb Slocum Glider. A recent application of the MicroRider is the integration with the Del Mar Oceanographic WireWalker platform, which makes it possible to autonomously observe marine turbulence evolution that varies rapidly in depth
MTR100: Hydroid
Hydroid, Inc. – a part of Kongsberg Maritime’s autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) group since its acquisition by Norwegian technology conglomerate Kongsberg Gruppen in 2008 – is a manufacturer of AUVs, including its signature REMUS vehicles. Hydroid founder Christopher von Alt’s knowledge of the intricate technology has been integral to the products’ development and widespread adoption. After years of fabricating and developing the REMUS vehicle at WHOI, in 2001 von Alt co-founded Hydroid, creating an independent company to commercially manufacture, support and further
