Navigation and positioning
Navigating and tracking you ROV underwater requires hydroacoustic sensors. Learn more about the sensors we offer.
Track and navigate below the surface
Navigation underwater is trickier than on land. Sensors such as GPS, does not work underwater. For underwater applications we need to rely on hydroaucoustics to track our whereabouts.
The hydroacoustic solutions available and the accuracy requirements of the sensors depend on what job you are doing. Some may only need to know where they are in relation to a reference point; some may need to only travel to a point and come back to the starting point, while others may require an accurate geo-referenced position at all times and over very long distances.

Mission planning
With positioning sensors added to the Blueye ROV, you can run autonoumous missions directly in the Blueye app. Simply set instructions in the Blueye app, press the start button, and let your Blueye ROV take care of the rest.
Mission planning is valuable in various applications, from conducting regular inspections to searching for specific targets at the seabed.
