Distance Lock Sensor
The Distance Lock module is specifically designed for Deep Trekker’s REVOLUTION and PIVOT ROVs, enabling them to maintain consistent inspection distances of 0.5 to 10 meters away from vertical and near-vertical surfaces and underwater structures. This ability to minimize manual corrections over extended periods of time reduces fatigue and allow operators to focus on the core mission objectives.
Rated for depths of down to 300 meters, the externally-mounted module operates at a 500kHz CHIRP frequency and delivers real-time distance readouts to the ROV controller. It is ideal for a variety of applications, including:
- Hydroelectric dam and nuclear facility inspections
- Sea wall surveys
- Ship hull inspections
- Civil engineering and infrastructure
