Water Linked DVL A50 Underwater Positioning Device (w/o Mounting Bracket)

Description

• Water Linked DVL A50 Underwater Positioning Device (w/o Mounting Bracket)
• Enhances capabilities of ROVs and AUVs with position holding and autonomous navigation
• Seamlessly integrates with BlueROV2 and similar vehicles
• Features a 4-beam convex Janus array transducer setup
• Operates efficiently with an average power consumption of 4W

The Water Linked DVL A50 Underwater Positioning Device (w/o Mounting Bracket) is a high-performance device, compactly designed to enhance the capabilities of remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) or autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). This includes features such as position holding and autonomous navigation.

The device is equipped with a pre-installed WetLink Penetrator, JST GH connectors for Ethernet and serial ports, and spade connectors for power, all of which facilitate seamless integration with the BlueROV2 and other similar vehicles. The DVL A50 is compatible with the Water Linked DVL extension in BlueOS, which further enhances ROV position holding and navigation, thereby improving the overall piloting experience.
