Rovco Ltd products

SubSLAM® X2 is the first real-time intelligent data collection system that delivers underwater live 3D point clouds and navigation with sub-millimetre precision. Now available through our technology offering, deployable from any ROV around the globe. SubSLAM® X2 tracks relative position perfectly without relying on any other external sensor such as USBL, LBL or INS, completing measurements in a fraction of the time. Live 3D data can be streamed to any device anywhere in the world, using Ocean Insight, our intelligent online data delivery platform. This allows onshore engineers to track progress, spot issues and react proactively during an offshore campaign from their own offices. SubSLAM® X2 captures and creates next–generation data. Equipped with machine vision sensors and fast onboard processors.

We are applying machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies to improve the efficiency of subsea surveys and asset management. The SubSLAM® system forms the basis of a suite of powerful tools that can extract more information from a typical ROV or AUV inspection. Through the automatic detection of key features or anomalies, our technology provides Engineers and O&M teams with a more focused approach to asset monitoring and reporting. By leveraging evermore powerful artificial intelligence, personnel can spend more time on critical analysis and management than watching hours of video. Machine learning and artificial intelligence technology automates high-cost, error-prone tasks such as detecting defects or monitoring changes in corrosion. By removing the human element, potential inconsistencies can be avoided, and true values of certainty applied to measurements. 

3D photogrammetry greatly improves the quality of outputs for data collected during underwater surveys. Accurate measurements taken throughout the acquisition process allow models to be constrained to real world dimensions. This enables a multitude of metrics such as distance measurements between structure points, surface area and volume calculations, overlaying CAD drawings and the integration of additional survey data. 3D spatial data allows the user to compare as-built, past or present models to determine areas of change. Rovco’s SubSLAM® live 3D vision system provides a greater understanding of asset condition than a visual survey alone, with no extra time required for data collection or post-processing. Subsea asset information is immediately available in CAD format, reducing the workflow between data collection, processing and reporting.
