The mission capable class of USV’s from Chance Maritime Technologies changes the narrative in uncrewed surveys inland and offshore, offering both power and endurance in an efficient vehicle.
A Sonic 2022-V+ was easy integrated on the MC29 USV moon pool with retractable mount, for ease of transit, launch and recovery. During survey, it deploys reliably 1.5ft below the hull. Large survey regions can be quickly and efficiently surveyed with minimal logistical burden. Surveys are conducted from the remote operations center, in the comfort of the office. This remote operations center enables safe and efficient control of survey operations 24/7 for USV’s operating anywhere in the world.
