Underwater System

Overview

Maritime System Team retains an independent technology to develop marine equipment for general ships and warships, leading the development of Marine Communication & Control System and Underwater System.

In addition, we are also developing the Automatic Control System installed in ship and the system related to marine resource and energy developments

 

SAUV

SAUV has been developed for five years from 1988 to 2003 as a part of national projects initiated by the Ministry of Science and Technology. It is used for multi purposes including underwater exploration and elimination of submarine mine. This particular product has localized the development of marine systems, all of which used be exported.

UUV

UUV6000 is a deep-sea unmanned submarine with the capacity of exploring 95% of the entire oceans on earth. It is a robotic system that conducts exploratory mission using a robot arm in an extreme condition of ultra-pressure and complete darkness under deep sea beyond human access.

This equipment enabled us to commence exploration of marine resources in deep sea of East Sea and Pacific Ocean since 2006, which helped to obtain recognition that Korea is the fourth country in the world that retain a submarine with the capability to explore the sea 6,000m deep.

We currently engage in developing Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, which has the capability of free exploration in deep sea and long-distance exploration function as well as telecommunication through sound and underwater launching system.

 

MDV

The Mine Disposal Vehicle is equipped with the high-performance propelling system to enhance the multi-beam sonar and tide handling capability, which results in a dramatic improvement in strategic mobilization as opposed to conventional unmanned submarine mine eliminator. In particular, the automatic control technology facilitates the access to target objects and autonomous navigational function enables a flexible response to accidents.

 

H-ROV

SH-ROV is a two-man-portable hovering ROV designed for ship hull inspection. H-ROV uses thrusters to hover, rotate in place and translate in any direction, enabling operations in confined areas.
