Strategic Robotic Systems (SRS) is an innovative developer of versatile next-generation unmanned underwater vehicles that combine advanced robotics, intuitive operation, and multi-mission flexibility for commercial, scientific, and defense applications.
Unmanned Systems Technology (UST) is pleased to announce the addition of Strategic Robotic Systems (SRS) to our global supplier ecosystem. As a Gold Partner, the company is showcasing its groundbreaking FUSION platform, a cutting-edge hybrid underwater vehicle that uniquely integrates tethered ROV, untethered AUV, and diver propulsion capabilities into a single compact system.
Drawing on years of vehicle design and field-testing experience, SRS approaches subsea robotics development with a fresh perspective, working closely with operators and organizations to address evolving operational challenges. Designed with simplicity, reliability, and mission adaptability at its core, FUSION combines advanced automation, a sophisticated sensor suite, and efficient mechanical engineering to deliver exceptional stability and ease of operation across a wide range of underwater missions.
Key features of the FUSION hybrid underwater vehicle include:
Three Operational Modes in One Platform – Seamlessly transitions between tethered ROV, untethered AUV, and diver-controlled propulsion vehicle configurations.
Expeditionary Deployment – Compact, lightweight design powered by high-density Li-ion batteries, enabling transportation as excess checked baggage and operation from a minimal logistical footprint.
Advanced Mission Flexibility – Supports pre-programmed autonomous missions, real-time remote operation, underwater towing, inspection, survey, recovery, and data collection tasks.
Modular Payload Architecture – Configurable payload bay and skids accommodate a wide range of sensors, manipulators, sonar systems, EOD tools, and custom integrations.
High-Performance Sensor Options – Compatible with side scan sonar, scanning sonar, magnetometers, metal detectors, auxiliary cameras, laser scalers, thickness gauges, and more.
Comprehensive Software Suite – Integrated platform for mission planning, vehicle control, data visualization, logging, playback, reporting, and analysis.
Acoustic Communications & Data Management – Enables advanced mission execution, sensor visualization, automated reporting, and export of collected survey data.
FUSION’s innovative design enables operators to conduct complex underwater missions using a single adaptable platform rather than multiple specialized systems. Ideal for inspections, surveys, search and recovery operations, EOD support tasks, diver-assisted missions and more, the vehicle delivers exceptional versatility while reducing operational complexity and costs.
