Company profile

Product descripton: VENUS USV by ST Engineering

The VENUS USV comprises the Operation Control Stations, Cyber Secured Datalink Suite and USVs integrated with Mission Payloads. It is designed as a common modular platform to meet multi-mission requirements, such as mine counter measures and maritime security. The VENUS USV has various commercial applications in public safety & security, such as policing, fire-fighting, search and rescue, and underwater survey and inspection.

Features:

  • Highly customisable modular platform allows different mission modules to be integrated to the USV to execute various missions.
  • Equipped with an all-round visibility and robust perception suite that comprises radar and optical trackers, multi-sensor fusion and navigation charts to enable obstacle detection.
  • Safe navigation with its Collison Detection Collision Avoidance capability that is well tested and proven in the congested waters and high traffic density of the Singapore Straits since 2008.
  • Able to perform autonomous waypoint navigation, dynamic positioning, manned-unmanned teaming, screening and blocking. It also comes with a Portable Remote Control Unit for remoted controlled or autonomous slip-off and berthing.

Unlocking the Future of Maritime Safety and Unmanned Systems

Fully autonomous with no crew on board, the unmanned vessel makes the patrolling job safer by eliminating any exposure to danger should a situation escalate while maximising the endurance of a vessel’s operations at sea that is not limited by human’s fatigue.

Besides detecting intruders, these unmanned vessels can also be used to detect and deter piracy, ensuring safe conditions for trade and commerce, especially crucial for port cities.
