AUVs, also known as intelligent marine robots, have revolutionised naval exploration. Costly legacy systems and platforms are slow, heavy and have a large economic footprint. AUVs provide an automated approach to accelerate timelines and enable distributed expeditionary systems to operate from a variety of host platforms. Fast, light and precise, these modular systems remove the divers from the minefield and can be operated as organic systems. A flexible alternative to traditional surface vessels, AUVs can glide close to the surface, dive to depths of more than 6000 meters, explore shallow...

HugTn The HUGIN AUV program started in the early ‘90s as a joint project between KONGSBERG, the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI), Statoil and the Royal Norwegian Navy. It has since evolved to be the most capable and successful commercial AUV in operation. HUGINs are traditionally equipped with HISAS or SSS, MBE, SBP and cameras, plus a range of environmental sensors that can all operate concurrently. Available with a range of modular payload and energy options and a world class inertial navigation system, the HUGIN AUV can run for up to 80 hours at depths of up to 6000...

SYNTHETIC APERTURE SONAR Transformational changes in warfare over the last two decades have increased the need for very high resolution imagery and high area coverage rates in MCM operations. The shift towards expeditionary warfare means that route survey data will often not be available. Being able to separate mines from mine-sized rocks is crucial. Modern mines and improvised explosive devices (IEDs) are difficult to classify (or even detect) with traditional sonars. KONGSBERG’s high resolution interferometric synthetic aperture sonar (HISAS) provides a resolution of better than 5x5 cm...
