Seafloor Systems has been awarded a contract to deliver an EchoBoat-ASV system to Skanska Construction in Trondheim, Norway.
 
The EchoBoat-ASV features dual-DC motors for ease of control and redundancy, noncorrosive materials, an integral transducer well, and multi-sensor payload capability. In addition, the package includes AutoNav, the Seafloor Auto Pilot package enabling the user to preplan a survey, upload to the onboard memory and autonomously carry out the survey. The system also provides the ability to manually override the Auto Pilot as well as a return to base function.  The EchoBoat-ASV is equipped with a NORBIT iWBMSc (Integrated Wideband Multibeam Sonar, Compact) with internal Novatel SPAN INS and integrated AML real-time SV sensor.
