Beyond the traditional automation for conducting AUV missions is a new era in vehicle stability and controls. The FUSION vehicle was meticulously designed to maximize stability, efficiency through the water and sensor orientation. Combining exceptional vehicle design and intelligent control and navigation algorithms produces a highly stable and intuitive underwater vehicle.
Long gone are the days of complex software as the FUSION brings a welcome change with a single user interface that operates all modes and allows seamless exchange of data. Plan and execute AUV missions, analyze sensor data, conduct ROV operations, set up diver mode, export data, and more.
A ruggedized Android tablet is at the heart of the HMI with a quick connect hand controller dock for ROV mode.

For ROV missions the FUSION has a small diameter ruggedized tether to minimize drag, enabling long-range missions, and maintain system portability. The 2.4mm (0.09″) diameter kink-free tether is strong and lightweight. A single connection point to the vehicle further simplifies system intuitiveness.
A managing tether can be a challenge, but not with the compact, lightweight reel. A 2,000 meter (6,560ft) capacity and level wind make tether handling simple.
