Intelligent collision avoidance
The ME120 USV comes with ultrasonic sensors that can detect obstacles 40 meters ahead to avoid collision when in auto-pilot mode.
Operators can observe the water environment through a real-time video feed to better avoid obstacles when operating in manual mode.
User can pre-program the survey mission with the base station on the bank. The USV and instruments can conduct surveys autonomously and send back real-time data.
User can also drive the USV manually by a remote controller.
Quick assembly and easy transportation
The ME120 utilizes a detachable catamaran design, making it easy for van transportation and for two people to assemble and disassemble.
