A.IKANBILIS is BeeX's flagship autonomous underwater inspection drone, developed for detailed structural and seabed inspections in complex environments. Its operating system uses a seven-sensor perception and positioning suite for autonomous decision-making, and the vehicle can switch between autonomous, manual, and untethered modes without hardware changes.
The fully integrated positioning system requires no external calibration, reducing mobilization time and enabling the vehicle to deliver consistent data without human remote control. Full supporting equipment fits in carry-on cases, allowing A.IKANBILIS to be deployed and operational on the same day. The vehicle can be launched and recovered by hand or crane.
A.IKANBILIS can conduct multi-drone operations with a 1:X operator-to-drone ratio. Untethered operation eliminates tether entanglement and asset-damage risks. Drone autonomy maintains consistent data quality across different water conditions and operator skill levels.
