Osprey – modular long-range AUV with enhanced payload capacity

The Osprey is an advanced AUV that improves upon the Gavia platform by providing operational endurances of more than 24 hours while keeping the versatile modular design and the 1000 meter depth rating. The vehicle also includes a range of new features, including an efficient rim drive thruster, an external data pod, increased capacity battery modules, a science bay, obstacle avoidance, and a forward-looking sonar (FLS) nose.

Osprey long-range AUVThe AUV utilizes Teledyne’s unique QuickLock Mechanism to join all modules and maintain watertight integrity. Mechanical and electrical blind-mating allows the vehicle to be quickly and easily assembled, reconfigured and disassembled.

The Osprey can be equipped with multiple optional sensors, including cameras, sonars and echosounders, to suit the needs of defense, commercial and scientific users.
