The USV Drix design has been customized to accommodate the Extended Range Transmitter and the combination of the Teledyne Sonar and the Drix is a perfect match.

“The Extended range capacity installed on the DRIX, will allow WAMS to extend the area of use to the depth up 900m and thereby expanding the capabilities to deliver services in Brazil and Latin America and also Global services where we have an opportunity”, says Waldeney Santos, Commercial Director of WAMS, “We chose the system because of the high level of autonomy, the system robustness and the flexibility of integration on Drix, was very important in our decision, mentioning that these features combined with the clean data output grants us great savings in time and money. With the best USV Drix, we are hoping to deliver to the market the best possible turnkey solutions combined with the excellence results from the DRIX and SeaBat T50ER.”

We are very happy with the partnership between WAMS and the equipment manufacturers iXBLue and Teledyne, who are delivering state-of-the-art equipment and high technology, allowing WAMS to perform the most varied data collection services on the Brazilian coast and in other regions of the planet.

We are excited to be able to conduct survey missions for a wide range of clients as well as we want to offer the USV to another service companies as a survey-ready package: USV + payload + pilots.
