Overview

The HydroBoat 990 is the smallest boat in the range. It weighs 20 kg without battery, so two people can carry and launch it from a bank or a ghat. The single-beam echosounder, RTK GNSS and INS are built in, and the boat runs pre-planned survey lines on its own from the SLHydro USV app on an Android controller.

Key features

  • Built-in 200 kHz single-beam echosounder, 0.15 to 200 m
  • Dual-antenna RTK GNSS heading with INS backup when signals drop
  • 360° camera and anti-collision sensor (10 to 30 m)
  • Carbon fibre hull, IP67, rubber bumper
  • 2.4 GHz radio up to 1.3 km, or unlimited range over 4G
  • Two batteries, about 5 h each at 1.5 m/s
