SHAPE UP

A simple and compact multi-mission platform

Surface drone: RSV

The RSV is an autonomous USV (Unmanned Surface Vehicle) with a semi-rigid architecture designed to support multiple configurations and a wide range of oceanographic equipment.

Observe, inspect, intervene

 

The RSV is a robust and field-proven USV platform, with over 20,000 operational hours accumulated across global deployments. From shallow waters to offshore environments, it is designed for inspection, measurement, and multi-sensor data acquisition, supported by a high payload capacity.

The RSV is a self-contained, highly versatile platform, fully configurable and equipped with silent electric propulsion, offering several days of endurance. It delivers an optimized performance-to-cost ratio while ensuring maximum reliability through marine-grade components engineered for harsh environments.

Pioneering in its field, the system was the first to integrate ROV capabilities for the oil & gas sector, a decade ago.

 

Possible missions:

 

 

  • High-resolution 2D/3D bathymetry

  • 3D scanning and digital twins, aerial and underwater

  • ROV Deployment

  • Deployment of a tethered aerial drone ( RSV Scandrone )

  • Remote monitoring and port protection

  • Sedimentary profiles

  • Detection of underwater activities (divers, mines, etc.)

  • Measurement of salinity, currents, etc.

  • Measurement of atmospheric contaminants (gases, chemicals)
