The event combined static displays of the vessel at the marina with dynamic demonstrations of autonomous navigation, sensor integration, and real-time data collection.
The L25 USV demonstrated its multi-sensor hub capability, integrating Teledyne Marine’s T20 Multibeam Sonar, EdgeTech Marine’s 4125 Side Scan Sonar, and Teledyne PDS software. With Trimble Centrepoint RTX signal correction, the system achieved 4 cm positioning accuracy, making it ideal for complex offshore oil and gas and marine survey challenges. During the dynamic trial, the vessel simultaneously executed seabed mapping, sediment analysis, and underwater structure detection.
Real-time data from these operations streamed to the indoor Remote Operation Centre (ROC), where attendees viewed synchronized displays of navigation paths, sonar scans, and seabed maps—demonstrating how the USV’s end-to-end workflow can enhance efficiency in energy and maritime sectors.
“The Middle East’s focus on energy infrastructure and smart port development aligns perfectly with our USV capabilities,” said Pinestone Shi, GM of OceanAlpha. “By demonstrating how the L25 can enhance efficiency in tasks like pipeline inspection or coastal mapping, we aim to support the region’s vision for technologically driven maritime growth.
