Characteristics of marine drones (USVs)


Marine drones are autonomous or remote-controlled vessels equipped with various advanced technologies. They include advanced sensors such as high-resolution cameras, sonars, lidars, as well as environmental sensors (temperature, salinity, etc.).

GPS and autonomous navigation systems allow precise and programmable paths, with the ability to adapt to maritime conditions. Total station technologies ensure accurate tracking of coordinates, even in low-connectivity areas.


Advantages in terms of surveillance


Continuous and proactive surveillance


USVs enable continuous and proactive surveillance of critical areas, ensuring constant coverage. Thanks to their advanced sensors, they quickly identify potential problems such as intrusions, floating debris, or leaks, facilitating a rapid response.


These marine drones can monitor vast maritime areas in a single deployment, offering a comprehensive view of offshore infrastructure and critical sites


Accessibility and safety


USVs can access difficult or dangerous areas, thereby increasing personnel safety. They operate in high-risk environments, such as potential collision sites, areas with strong turbulence, or debris zones.


By eliminating the need for human presence in these places, they reduce the risk of accidents.


Efficiency and responsiveness


USVs improve the efficiency of surveillance operations and increase responsiveness to incidents. They can be deployed quickly for emergency missions or unplanned inspections. By providing real-time data, they allow for rapid and informed decision-making.


The data collected by USVs can be integrated into other management systems for comprehensive analysis, optimizing the efficiency of surveillance operations. These marine drones also offer great operational flexibility, being reprogrammable for different missions.


USVs optimize the efficiency of surveillance and management operations. They provide rich and varied data, improving the quality of analyses and decisions. They can be quickly reprogrammed for different missions, thus offering great operational flexibility.


The adoption of marine drones (USVs) for the surveillance of maritime infrastructures opens up major development opportunities. Offering continuous monitoring, rapid intervention capability, and reduced risk for personnel, USVs are becoming essential tools to improve safety and operational efficiency.
