Problem
Underwater operations such as search and recovery, mine counter‑measures, and covert missions often rely on divers or bulky tethered ROVs, exposing personnel to hazardous conditions, limited visibility, and logistical constraints that slow mission execution.
Solution
SRS Fusion delivers a hybrid, battery‑powered ROV that can operate in tethered ROV, autonomous AUV, or diver‑deployed (DDV) modes, providing flexible, low‑drag deployment for surface, covert, and offshore teams. Integrated multi‑beam imaging sonar, optional side‑scan sonar, and the proprietary Nadir gap‑filler enable rapid high‑resolution surveys and precise target location even in turbid water. A lightweight 2.7 mm fiber‑optic tether and rechargeable lithium‑ion (or NiMH) batteries eliminate the need for generators and large surface tethers, allowing the entire system to be transported as luggage. Custom software fuses sensor streams in real time, delivering actionable data for search, evidence recovery, mine neutralization, and marine protected‑area monitoring, while the optional Titan Disruptor payload adds standoff explosive‑ordnance disposal capability.
Target Audience
Primary customers are Coast Guard and naval search‑and‑rescue units, mine‑counter‑measure teams, special‑operations forces, and commercial or governmental agencies conducting underwater surveys, evidence recovery, or marine environmental protection.
Features
- Hybrid operation modes (ROV, AUV, DDV) with seamless switch between tethered and autonomous control
- Integrated Blueprint Subsea Oculus multi‑beam imaging sonar plus optional side‑scan sonar for high‑resolution imaging in low‑visibility conditions
- Proprietary Nadir gap‑filler technology for fast, gap‑free seabed surveys, unique among ROVs
- Battery‑powered design with rechargeable lithium‑ion (or optional NiMH) cells, removing dependence on surface power and generators
- Ultra‑thin 2.7 mm single‑mode fiber‑optic tether minimizing drag and enabling covert deployment up to 2 km
- Titan Disruptor payload for standoff mine and unexploded ordnance neutralization
- Real‑time data fusion and post‑mission analysis software that aggregates sonar, video, USBL, and other sensor data into actionable reports
