Outland ROV - 1000
This new ROV (Remote Operating Vehicle) utilizes brushless DC, magnetically coupled thrusters. The control system has been designed around these thrusters to maximise the power. Dual tilting cameras give low light B&W and High Resolution Color in one small package.

Ac-cess SP50 ROV
The AC-ROV is a full five degrees of freedom underwater video camera and sensor platform. This maneuverability is essential as other underwater inspection vehicles are not compact enough, nor do they have the mobility required to work in confined submerged environments. The AC-ROV utilizes six internally housed motion thrusters, allowing the operator all the viewing control required to assess the target object, all managed via one simple operator interface. There are no camera pan and tilt limits with separate controls (as demonstrated by other inspection class ROV's) because there is no pan and tilt requirement, simply rotate or tilt the AC-ROV. Four 'full-bore' vectored horizontal thruster units give equal forward / aft, port / starboard and pan control just like the biggest of commercial ROVs, whilst two vertical units give powerful up / down and pitch control. You can fly upside down or loop the loop if you want to. The 'spacemouse' controller provides a very intuitive, one-handed operator interface. The developers understand the limitations of joysticks and the fact that two joysticks would have been needed for the five degrees of freedom control requirement. The spacemouse device, as its name implies, can translate up to a maximum of six degrees of freedom, which fully defines movement in space. Applied to the AC-ROV, roll is the only 'degree' that is not controlled. Small and versatile, the AC-ROV system can be hand carried, unpacked, deployed and operated by a sole user at very short notice. Images can be viewed or recorded as required whilst the manipulator option can be used for gathering samples, evidence or fixing recovery lines.
