About This Product

The Slocum G3 uses a buoyancy control mechanism using an oil bladder and a battery that moves the center of gravity (back and forth) to enable autonomous navigation that allows profile measurement over long distances and long periods of time while repeatedly surfacing and gliding underwater. It is a type observation machine. Loading and retrieval can be easily carried out by a small vessel and a small number of people (1 to 2 people). Slocum is equipped with satellite communications so that it can receive mission updates (measurement changes, waypoint changes, etc.) via the web-based pilot software when it ascends to the surface at any time. You can also send the data you obtained during your dive. By adopting a modular system, users can rearrange and use over 40 types of sensors and optional mechanisms to suit their purposes.
