SW1050 Advanced Underwater Inspection ROV
Mounted with the Newton M310UW Laser Scanner
The SW1050 mounted with the M310UW underwater laser scanner is a new accompaniment to Newton's world leading underwater scanning technology. This underwater drone has not only software self-stabilized position control but also the M310UW scanner, gyroscopically stabilized. The SW1050UW also allows operation in any orientation. It is also much smaller than most competing underwater swimmers, and much easier to control with Newton's built in operation and stabilizing software. Similar to current air drone technology, its powerful thrusters accommodate most external flows that may be found in the inspection area.
The mounted N310UW Underwater Laser scanning system combines rugged, industrial-grade hardware and electronics with sophisticated, Newton developed software that mitigates the disruption of turbulence and turbidity and is gyroscopically stabilized for precision laser scans; something often difficult with ROV mounted laser scanners.
The M310UW laser scanner has a demonstrated accuracy of 0.005" (0.125mm) or better, and is designed to work in concert with industry standard, three-dimensional software, producing a point cloud output so dense and detailed that a fully measurable CAD model can be generated.
The capability of the M310UW to provide precise, reliable and efficient dimensioning of as-is features and degradation is the best in the world.
