This video from Dynautics explores the development of Phantom 2, a modular Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) designed to support a wide range of subsea missions.
Building on the success of the compact, cost-effective Phantom 1, Phantom 2 offers greater endurance, deeper operating capability and flexible payload integration, including options such as side-scan sonar. Its modular architecture enables rapid reconfiguration or customisation to suit scientific, commercial marine and defence tasks with minimal downtime.
The video follows the team’s progression from simulation-driven design to controlled tank testing, highlighting how the Spectra autopilot was tuned to achieve stable, reliable underwater control. The successful trials mark an important step forward in Dynautics’ underwater autonomy capability.
