BATHYDRONE
Aquatic Drone SUMO

RELIABILITY, POWER, AND ROBUSTNESS.
Power at the service of Scientific Research.
The BathyDrone SUMO is our very first surface aquatic drone. Reliable, powerful, and robust, it is particularly appreciated by researchers and universities for its ability to accommodate specific measurement equipment.
With an impressive autonomy of 8 hours, the BathyDrone SUMO is the ideal partner for scientific research missions in bodies of water and calm rivers.
The BathyDrone SUMO allows for the programming of automatic missions and provides real-time data to monitor its acquisitions and movements. It can be manually controlled via a remote control, offering a range of up to 1 km. Its position and orientation are displayed on a map background with all navigation parameters.
The reliability of experts in bathymetric surveys.
Designed by experts in bathymetric surveys, the BathyDrone SUMO is the result of a strong desire to create a reliable vessel capable of collecting highly accurate data.
Thanks to its automatic mission programming, it offers users real-time control over the drone’s data acquisition and movements, as well as the ability to be equipped with even the most advanced instruments.


2 Operators

Flexibility and interconnection of sensors.
Support for getting started.
The BathyDrone SUMO can integrate a single-beam, single-frequency sonar, ideal for its cost-effectiveness in providing reliable bathymetric data from 30 cm depth. A dual-frequency single-beam sonar will be used to estimate the thickness of soft sediments.
The sensors of the BathyDrone SUMO are directly interfaced with the navigation controller and your ground computer, allowing the reception and interaction of acquired data with bathymetric software such as Hypack or Hydromagic.
Additionally, it can be equipped with an automatic winch to lower various measuring instruments, such as a velocimeter, and optionally features a sample collection system with a refrigerated chamber.
With personalized training on implementation and operation, you will approach your first missions with confidence. Our training covers both theoretical and practical aspects to help you make the most of your SUMO aquatic drone's capabilities.
