The Unmanned System Technology features the Aquatic Drones Phoenix 5 in an in-depth article, a must read for tech lovers and enthusiasts of autonomous maritime systems.
You can find us in Issue #4 of Hydro Magazine, the global magazine for hydrography. This issue is all about exploiting unmanned surface vehicles to collect ocean data.
Together with our partners we have received a subsidy for research into autonomous water measurements in Zeeland Water with our Phoenix 5.
The survey operations on the River IJssel will be extended. Our Phoenix will carry out more surveys in the area where the new type of groynes were constructed.
We will subject a scale model of the Phoenix 5 to rough sea tests at the facilities of MARIN, a hydrodynamic and nautical research institute with a number of test basins.
Together with TNO and Boskalis we are going to do a number of surveys in an area off the coast of Scheveningen to support operations with undersea cables for offshore wind parks.
We are currently busy testing the Phoenix preproduction model: doing longer surveys, operating under different weather conditions, etc. so we can finalise the integration of all systems.
The calibration of the survey systems has been done by Geovisie. We have also done multiple patch test by undertaking repeated surveys of known features, above and below water.
We have updated the Phoenix preproduction design from a catamaran hull to a monohull instead. Now we can install a more powerful motor and batteries and accommodate more equipment.
We are working on the final design of the production version of the Phoenix 5. The first production unit will be a hybrid model, fitted with a diesel generator to charge the batteries.
We are building a new Phoenix! A new vessel with a monohull design with a flat bottom, resulting in more buoyancy for accommodating extra systems and many more updates.
Today’s challenges in the field of water, river, port, nearshore and sea monitoring for maintenance are complex and require a multidisciplinary approach. We develop sustainable solutions in collaboration with other technical innovators, our customers, research institutes, our suppliers and leading experts. We also consider the broader environmental and ethical context of where our technology is used. In this way we aim to balance economic and environmental goals. We are committed to realising the best for human progress: smart, safe, cost-effective and sustainable.

Aquatic Drones are maritime robots that collect data autonomously.
Authorities and companies which manage and maintain marine assets, require data to plan this maintenance. Effective AUV surveys combined with our predictive maintenance models can help you plan dredging operations, repairs and water quality improvements more effectively. The models predict the rate and location of the deterioration of your assets. This enables you to reduce both costs and the environmental footprint of maintenance operations.
Our Predective Data Model assists you by:
"We deliver data processing and predictive
maintenance models that fit our clients’ workflows and software. More data, less costs, lower carbon footprint and more effective interventions"
We focus on advanced solutions for cutting edge autonomous surface vessels
We focus on safety and quality to deliver reliable products
Our customers always have top priority and their satisfaction is the main driver behind our ambitions
We always aim for constructive cooperation and co-creation through strong and long-lasting partnerships
We consistently aim to contribute to our planet with effective solutions and use of new technology
