SeeByte announces the unit sale of the latest version of its SeeTrack Offshore product for ROV Dynamic Positioning (DP) to subsea engineering & construction company Subsea 7.
The system was successfully installed on the latest-generation Hercules 135 ROV aboard Subsea 7's Kommandor Subsea vessel operating in the North Sea.
The sale follows the recent release of SeeTrack Offshore v 2.2 which is compatible with all standard ROV systems and can be easily retro-fitted to operational units that are fitted with a Doppler and a Heading Reference system. Pilots using ROVS equipped with SeeTrack Offshore will be able to hold position and heading at the touch of a button, change the position and heading accurately using a simple point-and-click mouse interface, use the ROV joystick intuitively without having to consider currents and tether effects and cruise at constant speed and heading.
The latest version includes new features for greater performance, such as the Survey Module which allows the user to pre-plan a mission with waypoint and holding patterns using a simple and intuitive user interface. The ROV is then transformed into a stable, automatic vehicle capable of gathering excellent data. The Survey Module is ideal for all subsea surveys.
Subsea 7 ROV and Tooling Equipment Manager, Paul Darwin said: Our offshore crew is very impressed with the latest SeeTrack Offshore product. Our operators appreciate its simplicity and are eager to see how it performs in the North Sea's prevailing environmental conditions, with significant waves and very strong subsea currents, in the upcoming projects.
SeeByte Sales Manager Ioseba Tena said: SeeTrack Offshore is just another example of how SeeByte uses the latest generation of SMART software tools in an easy to operate, pilot friendly form factor to improve the operations of all our customers.
As the dynamics of aerial combat rapidly evolve, Chinese scientists have engineered a sophisticated air separation drone model that can fragment into up to six drones, each capable of executing distinct battlefield roles and challenging the efficacy of current anti-drone defences such as the UK’s Dragonfire laser system.
Advancements in air defence technologies have begun to reshape aerial combat dynamics in the Middle East, as illustrated by recent events involving the Israeli Air Force and Hezbollah.
Both sides of the Russia-Ukraine war have been using UAS for effective low-cost attacks, as well as impactful web and social media footage. Thousands more have now been committed to Ukrainian forces.
The US Army has intentions to develop light, medium and heavy variants of the Robotic Combat Vehicle (RCV) as part of the branche’s Next Generation Combat Vehicle family.
DroneSentry-X, a cross-vehicle compatible, automated 360° C-UAS detect and defeat device, can offer 360° awareness and protection using integrated sensors. According to its manufacturer, it is suitable for mobile operations, on-site surveillance and on-the-move missions.
Funded by the country’s former president, the new C-UAS systems will be sent to the frontline where they have already been tested against Russian invading forces.
