Tiburon Subsea Introduces Advanced Underwater Robotic Technology
JETTE is a pioneering in-line dual vectored subsea robotic controlled propulsion system designed to meet the evolving demands within the underwater robotics market.
Tiburon Subsea has launched its patent pending autonomous underwater thruster control technology, JETTE.
JETTE is a pioneering in-line dual vectored subsea robotic controlled propulsion system designed to meet the evolving demands within the underwater robotics market.
This revolutionary design employs dual fore and aft thrusters working independently and in tandem giving Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUV) enhanced capabilities. The JETTE system offers increased speed, variable controls, maneuverability, durability, and redundancy over traditional UUV's. This design eliminates the long-standing control plane weak points that have plagued UUV's. JETTE provides extended hover/dwell/scan abilities and simplifies maintenance while providing redundancy and self-rescue. It is a unique system and an evolution in hydrodynamic efficiency.
Breaking down barriers to emerging technology and facilitating its availability is a mission for Ocean Explorer, Founder and Tiburon Subsea CEO Tim Taylor.
"Autonomous vehicles are opening new frontiers just as satellites have in space. Timely ocean data is a missing link. Renewable energy, climate change remediation, coastal engineering and security will all benefit from this technology. Tiburon's aim is to democratize access to autonomous robotic tech for stakeholders and caretakers. In facilitating access to data, we will increase awareness, care, and management of our ocean resources and environment in real-time," states Taylor.
Tiburon Subsea is pioneering a new wave for the future of underwater robotics by developing a platform consisting of proprietary technology, engineering support, training, and logistical services.
Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
