Overview
The ARV-i, the next generation of underwater monitoring technology, designed by Boxfish Robotics and powered by Krona SubSea. This cutting-edge autonomous underwater resident vehicle offers a new approach to large area or repetitive monitoring, including industrial sites monitoring, reef and artificial reef monitoring, invasive species monitoring and more. The ARV-i operates fully autonomously and tetherless, guided by advanced programming and onboard intelligence that allow it to locate and inspect underwater environments. When its mission is complete or its battery runs low, ARV-i autonomously returns to its proprietary docking station, where it wirelessly recharges and transmits valuable data collected during mission.
Flagship features
- **Autonomous operation**: Fully autonomous underwater operation without human intervention
- **Remote control**: Can be controlled and monitored from the mainland
- **Environmental monitoring**: Designed for monitoring large areas and repetitive tasks
- **Safety**: Enhances safety by eliminating the need for risky human dives
- **Cost-effective**: Reduces operational costs and boosts efficiency
- **Sustainability**: Supports environmental sustainability by minimizing the ecological footprint
