The BX-USV II is a lightweight, modular unmanned surface vessel engineered for diverse marine science and monitoring applications.
Featuring advanced composites for the robust yet lightweight hull, the platform integrates underwater propulsion and autonomous navigation systems to deliver stable and responsive performance across complex aquatic terrains.
The inflatable dual-side float configuration enhances portability and storage, allowing for seamless deployment from shore and efficient operation even in shallow or obstructed waters.
Payloads & SensorsEquipped to support a broad array of sensor payloads, the BX-USV II enables real-time data acquisition for hydrological assessment, water quality analysis, meteorological tracking, sonar-based mapping, bathymetric surveys, and infrastructure inspections.
With excellent maneuverability and endurance of up to seven hours at a cruising speed of 2 m/s, this vessel is ideal for scientific research, pollution detection, and environmental monitoring across both inland and coastal zones. Its open, modular design simplifies integration and adaptation to mission-specific requirements.
