Product catalog summary
Free-Flooded Modularity: The Bluefin-12S vehicle design features swappable payload sections and battery modules, allowing for in-field mission reconfiguration. This modularity enables quick access to subsystems for rapid turnaround between missions and facilitates in-field maintenance, enhancing operational efficiency.
Versatility & Scalability: The vehicle uses standard building blocks for various configurations without needing a complete redesign. It can accommodate new payloads and energy sections, adapting to expanding requirements or changing applications. An empty payload section with a standard interface is available for customer payload integration.
Accurate Navigation: Bluefin’s navigation software integrates data from the IMU, GPS, DVL, SVS, and compass to provide precise navigation with an error margin of less than 0.5% of the distance traveled, ensuring high-quality data without an INS.
Ease of Use: An intuitive software package allows for easy mission planning, monitoring, and rapid post-mission processing. It supports data export to third-party software.
Specifications: The Bluefin-12S is a modular autonomous underwater vehicle with a 4.5-kWh energy capacity, suitable for shallow applications. It features a diameter of 12.75 inches, a length of 12.4 feet, and a dry weight of 470 pounds. It has a buoyancy of 8 pounds net positive, a depth rating of 650 feet, and an endurance of 26 hours at 3 knots with a side scan sonar. The vehicle can reach speeds up to 5 knots and is powered by three 1.5 kWh lithium-polymer battery packs.
Applications: The Bluefin-12S is suitable for inshore surveys, search and salvage operations, oceanography, scientific research, mine countermeasures, and unexploded ordnance detection.
Navigation and Communication: The vehicle includes a gimbaled, ducted thruster for propulsion and control, with real-time navigation accuracy of ≤ 0.5% of D.T. CEP 50 and post-processed accuracy of ≤ 0.2% of D.T. CEP 50. It features integrated GPS, RF, Iridium, and strobe antennas, with communication options including RF, Iridium, acoustic, and Ethernet via shore power cable.
Safety Systems: The Bluefin-12S is equipped with fault and leak detection, a drop weight, acoustic tracking transponder, strobe, RDF, and Iridium, all independently powered.
Software and Data Management: The Operator Tool Suite provides a GUI-based interface for mission planning, monitoring, execution, data management, and post-mission analysis. The vehicle includes a 4 GB flash drive for data storage.
System Package: The Bluefin-12S is part of a comprehensive system package that includes the vehicle, support equipment, spares, software, training, and a 1-year warranty.

12S-1

Bluefin-12S The Bluefin-12S is a highly modular autonomous underwater vehicle with the ability to carry multiple payloads simultaneously. Its baseline low-cost navigation solution and 4.5-kWh energy capacity provide ample capability for most shallow applications. The ultimate configuration of Bluefin-12S is customizable for unique requirements. FREE-FLOODED MODULARITY – The vehicle design includes swappable payload sections and battery modules for in-field mission reconfiguration. Subsystems can be quickly accessed for rapid turnaround between missions and also allow for in-field maintenance, accelerating operational tempo. VERSATILITY & SCALABILITY – Standard building blocks enable a variety of configurations without having to design from scratch. The Bluefin-12S can accommodate new payloads and enhanced energy sections – evolving with expanding requirements or changing applications. It can also be delivered with an empty payload section and a standard payload interface for customer payload integration. ACCURATE NAVIGATION – Bluefin’s navigation software combines information from the IMU and multiple other sensors – including GPS, a DVL, an SVS and a compass – to provide accurate navigation with an error of less than 0.5% of distance traveled, yielding high-quality data without an INS. EASE OF USE – An intuitive software package enables quick and easy planning and monitoring of missions and rapid post-mission processing and display, and is capable of exporting data to third-party software. 553 South Street Quincy, Massachusetts 02169 USA The Bluefin-12S can be recovered with a simple A-frame Applications Inshore Survey Search & Salvage Oceanography Scientific Research Mine Countermeasures (MCM) Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) +1.617.715.7000 www.bluefinrobotics.com
