Contact Our ExpertsThe Challenge: Navigating Complex Underwater Environments
Traditional underwater operations face significant limitations in challenging conditions:
Zero visibility conditions in turbid waters make visual detection nearly impossible
Limited detection capabilities in murky environments hinder search and rescue operations
Incomplete coverage with single-vehicle approaches leaves gaps in survey data
Time-consuming processes from initial scanning to final recovery operations
Integrated Solution: AUV & ROV Synergy
Our integrated approach combines the autonomous capabilities of AUVs with the precision control of ROVs to deliver unmatched underwater operational capabilities.

System Composition & Collaborative Workflow
AUV Large-Area Rapid Search
Widershine's 500m AUV first conducts large-area acoustic scanning of the target waters. Equipped with side-scan sonar and multi-beam imaging sonar, it can quickly cover vast areas and identify suspicious target points.
ROV Close-Range Precision Confirmation & Operations
After the AUV identifies suspicious areas, Widershine's 500m ROV is deployed for close-range underwater observation and confirmation. The ROV is equipped with high-definition cameras and powerful lighting systems that provide real-time video even in low visibility conditions.
Technical Advantages
Exceptional Turbid Water Detection Capability
The system's core advantage lies in its ability to effectively handle turbid water. Both AUV and ROV can be equipped with 3D real-time imaging sonar technology that can penetrate turbid water. Even in extreme environments with "zero" visibility, it can accurately capture underwater terrain, obstacles, and other information, instantly constructing high-definition 3D models of target objects. The detection capability covers a range of 120 meters, meeting the needs of most inland waters and offshore detection.
AUV Flexibility and Long Endurance
Widershine's AUV adopts a modular design that allows sensor configuration according to different mission requirements. Its compact size facilitates deployment, and it has long endurance capability (>6 hours), making it suitable for continuous searching in large water areas.
ROV Stable Control and Powerful Payload
Widershine's ROV has a powerful thruster system and stable underwater attitude control capability, enabling stable operation even in turbulent currents. Its modular design also supports the installation of various operational tools, such as manipulators and multiple sonar types, expanding application scenarios.
Application Scenarios
Our underwater systems are designed for diverse operational requirements in challenging environments.
Underwater Emergency Response & Recovery
Used for searching and recovering drowned persons, shipwrecks, black boxes, key evidence, etc.
Underwater Infrastructure Inspection
Regular inspection or damage assessment of underwater structures such as dams, bridge piers, pile foundations, and pipelines.
Waterway Security Assurance
Investigating obstacles in navigation channels to ensure navigation safety.
Marine Scientific Investigation & Research
Used for marine topographic mapping, hydrological data collection, and ecological environment monitoring.
Widershine's AUV and ROV collaborative solution uses the AUV for efficient large-area preliminary screening and the ROV for precise close-range confirmation and operations. Combined with advanced 3D real-time imaging sonar technology, it effectively solves the detection challenges in turbid water, providing reliable technical support for complex underwater tasks.
