Software Features

Basic Control

  • Depth hold, altitude hold, magnetic heading hold
  • Attitude stabilization
  • Wide variety of supported controller inputs; gamepads, joysticks, keyboards, custom hand controllers, and more

Advanced
Control Modes

  • Gyro heading hold, position hold, waypoint navigation (coming soon!)
  • Re-tuning not required when hardware sensors change
  • Arbitrary attitude hold

Data Recording

  • All vehicle data is recorded to a single data file, easing post-processing
  • All data is time-synchronized

Eventing
and Post-processing

  • Playback onsite to make sure mission is complete
  • Mark events during your dive
  • Use scripts (we have example ones) to post-process the data to extract just what you/your client needs

Optimized
Video Pipeline

  • Low latency digital video pipeline
  • Multiple cameras
  • Control the bitrate and other functions of the camera
  • USB/IP based cameras

Network
Topologies Supported

  • Support for dynamic and static IP
  • Support for concurrent multi-vehicle and multi-client operation
  • Support for control over remote links
  • Out-of-the-box zero-configuration support

Intuitive Pilot UI

  • Display video streams, switch between video streams, telemetry
  • Sonar display (coming soon!)
  • Map and navigation information (coming soon!)

Expansion Ability

  • Control lights, manipulators, tilt platforms, tooling, etc.
  • Add custom sensors and view telemetry (CP, UT, etc.)

User Development

  • Our use of open standards, such as DDS, allows you to interface your programs to our system
