Product Detail

 

Great ability against wind and waves & excellent seaworthiness

The Alpha ARK is a trapezoidal-shaped trimaran with great seaworthiness and stable sailing ability. The high-speed airflow enters the channel from the horn and forms an air cushion to generate additional lift that reduces the forward resistance to make it easy to accelerate when sailing.

  • #
    Strong resistance to impact & high corrosion resistance
    The hull is made of a Kevlar & carbon fiber composite material in acid, alkali, and corrosion resistance, which is lighter in weight, strong in impact resistance, and good in sealing. Its remarkable hull design is convenient for transmission and reliable placement.
  • #
    Powerful battery & long endurance
    Its intelligent lithium battery supports fast charging and discharging; the system is equipped with a self-protection function, including a battery explosion-proof bag and special waterproof dealing. The powerful battery and low consumption support 6 hours of endurance under economic conditions.
  • #
    Two modes of communication & celerity and accuracy in data control
    Standard bridge and network communication modes meet the needs of a variety of working conditions and get rid of transmission distance restrictions. The multi-link ensures stable data transmission to keep accurate data at hand.
  • #
    Multiple safety protection mechanisms & safe navigation
    Alpha ARK monitors the operational status of the USV in real-time by the 360° full-view camera; no longer need to worry about obstacles encountered during navigation, for the ultrasonic obstacle avoidance module can help timely and effectively avoid obstacles; and no longer need to worry about communication loss due to the multiple low-voltage and safe return mechanisms to ensure navigation safety.

Available Instrumentation

APPLICATIONS

Mapping of underwater topography and geomorphology

Tangxunhu Park is located in the Wuhan Economic and Technological Development Zone; our measuring area is 207 meters long and 58 meters wide. The condition is complex due to a large number of collapsed branches and some protruding reefs on the lake surface. We gather the data and send the relevant instructions from a safe area through shore-based software by taking underwater measurements with the Alpha ARK unmanned ship. Compared with the traditional manual measurement method, it takes the maximum limited protection of personnel safety and improves operational mobility and efficiency.

 

Hidden pipe detection

The Alpha ARK unmanned ship is equipped with side-scan sonar to image the underwater target. Combined with sonar image analysis and judgment, we help law enforcement find out the sewage pipe and target polluters and provide strong data support to find out the water pollution source and the pollution area distribution.

ADCP section velocity measurement

The Alpha ARK with the navigable ADCP can transmit data in real time and generate a flow rate chart by mobile navigable vertical velocity, measurement of flow rate, and section flow rate. It is safer and more efficient than manual measurement; at the same time, it avoids human errors and ensures the accuracy of data.
