Fully New Design, Improving Your Productivity
The SOUTH M10 is a compact unmanned surveying vessel equipped with a single-beam echo sounder. It features a centimeter-level high-precision dual GNSS positioning and heading system, an inertial measurement system with attitude accuracy up to 0.25°, and intelligent navigation and measurement software based on the Android platform. It can autonomously navigate accurately along a preset route, collecting precise data even in complex water flow environments.
Compared to other unmanned surveying vessels in the industry, the M10 is more portable (950mm in length), has better obstacle avoidance performance (40m), a higher maximum speed (7m/s), longer endurance (6 hours on one battery with a cruise speed of 2m/s), a wider operating range (2km on 2.4GHz), and better environmental suitability (only 9cm draft).
This newly designed unmanned surveying system is the ideal choice for bathymetric surveys in lakes, inland rivers, and coastal areas..
