Saab Seaeye Sabertooth: AUV/ROV

Availability:

The Sabertooth is a hybrid AUV/ROV capable of working in deep water either as an autonomous vehicle, or via a tether. Its power, tether-free operation and its 360? hovering manoeuvrability make the Sabertooth an ideal option for autonomous inspection or maintenance.

Features

The vehicle can be instructed to perform a specific task such as transit to a specific location or to perform a pre-programmed inspection

Available in single and double hull versions

The vehicle can swim autonomously to the docking unit and remain there 24/7 for more than six months without maintenance, eliminating the cost of surface vessels.

The vehicle also utilises advanced autopilots: heading, depth, altitude, pitch and roll stabilisation, station keeping and vector transitions.

Has the capability for non-invasive self-diagnostics, and includes a fault-tolerant control system.
