Vehicle Description

REMUS has four main sections: the nose cone, RDI Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler module, mid-body, and tail. In addition, there are two possible nose cone configurations: standard and bioluminescence. Click anywhere on the diagram below for more specific information on that section. You may also be interested in details on how REMUS navigates.

Choose nose cone: Standard Bioluminescence

The standard nose cone includes both the Ultra Short BaseLine (USBL) and Long BaseLine (LBL) acoustic navigation transducers and an Ocean Sensors® 200 Conductivity/Temperature/Depth (CTD) sensor. Both the serial and single pin power/data connectors, which are attached to the vehicle's bulkhead, can be accessed through this section. These connectors are used to establish communication between a laptop and the vehicle through a power interface box, via either a direct serial link or an Ethernet link.
