New Models+™ for Underwater Survey Explorer™ (USE™)
CodaOctopus has added new functionality to USE™, the software that accompanies the Echoscope® 3D real time sonar. Models+™ is a new module that adds the ability to view multiple AutoCAD DXF™ files in the 3D world. This feature allows the user to add context to the 3D scene and allows the ROV pilot or vessel to navigate to the point of interest using the USE™ display alone. In the case of a subsea construction application, the DXF™ files could contain the target seafloor locations for assets that are to be deployed. The user can visualize in real time the position and orientation of the suspended asset to target seafloor location.
In addition, Models+™ now supports batch import of multiple 3D models in a single operation. Each model can be assigned its own position and orientation before input, and models can be ‘animated’ in real time by assigning to independent external sources. For example, if the Echoscope® is viewing a subsea excavator at work, then a model of the excavator can be super-imposed onto the 3D scene and animated by assigning it to an appropriate navigation data input.
Please contact our Sales team to find out more about how Models+™ can enhance your Echoscope® operations.
F175™ Encouraging Sales
CodaOctopus is delighted to announce encouraging initial sales of the new F175™ MOTION sensor.
The F175™ system adds an inertial capability to your existing GNSS sensor and transforms your positioning only solution to a full, cost effective motion reference system suitable for deployment on hydrographic surveys. Additionally, the F175™ will continue to output accurate position and motion data even when GNSS signal is interrupted.
Alan Craig, Vice President Operations at SES said, “CodaOctopus F180® range of equipment has been a great workhorse for us over the years. The addition of the two F175™ units to our fleet will fill a gap for customers who require an all in one GPS/Attitude system with excellent accuracies. The advantage of being able to use an existing RTK GPS system to aid the F175™ will suit a wide range of our customers.”
Lou Nash, CEO at Measutronics Inc, said "The F175 -T2™ compliments the Trimble SPS series of receivers quite nicely.The availability of iHeave™ data, at the price point of other "true heave only" systems, is an added bonus."
