The Freedom™ Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) is the most advanced, resident-capable underwater robotic solution available today. It offers the data resolution and completeness of coverage in a single pass usually only obtainable using an ROV, but with the speed and mission efficiency of a traditional AUV.

Resident-Capable

Freedom’s capability to locate, orientate, and horizontally dock with a subsea docking station is a vital component to enable Field of the Future operations. Work can be performed in more challenging weather conditions and for longer continuous durations than traditional ROVs and AUVs by supporting the ability to change tools, recharge, and data offload without the vehicle being recovered to surface.
