TECHNOLOGIES

Our technology development focusses on core system functionalities such as control (dynamic positioning), path planning, (GNSS-denied) navigation, perception and onboard data processing solutions. Making use of optical sensor (LiDAR) and high performance on-board processing modules (NV idea).

UNMANNED VESSEL PLATFORMS

USV hull: New unmanned naval design approach & own seakeeping/CFD simulations for validation.
Innovative platform: Electric rim driven (axle less) thruster, fully automated system & automated winch.
Safety-by-design: Redundant mission critical component, 3-layer emergency system & limp home mode.
Industrial design: Designed for contagious industrial operations, easy maintenance & infield part replacement.
Transportability: Enabling air-, road- & ship- transport in ready-to-use configuration in standard logistic processes.
Quality & standards: MD, LVD (SELV-TOUCH SAFE), EMC, IP, RoHS3, WEEE, ISO12100:2010, ISO9001, EU60204/60529.
Patented DP system: Novel GNSS positioning system for station keeping without steering parts & low maintenance.

UNMANNED MISSION SOFTWARE

  • Intuitive mission planner software designed around actual surveyor operational experience.
  • Adjustable Collision Avoidance functionalities, obstacle detection & evasive path visualisation in UI.
  • Ability to switch between different navigational charts (ENC, Google maps, weather & sea state maps, etc.).
  • Advanced DUS-diagnostics tool for remote system diagnostics & manufacturer support.
  • Embedded 360 video & data streams.
  • Single interface for operators with different and multiple (fleet) Demcon Unmanned Systems USVs.

AUTONOMOUS NAVIGATION SYSTEM

Multiple perception sensors & known environment knowledge (3D LiDAR, Radar, AIS, 360 EO & 360 IR, weather, ENC).

Situational Awareness System for real time onboard perception data acquisition, filtering & fusion.

Multi safety level Collision Avoidance System for inshore and offshore:

Safety Level 0       : Pre mission safety with automated mission geofencing & survey grid clipping.

Safety Level 1       : Sensor based object detection warning system with audio-visual signals & alarms.

Safety Level 2       : Evasive path planning algorithms autonomously executing alternative paths.

Safety Level 3       : Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) system (slow down & breaking).
