Belgian Navy upgrades software for AUV fleet
The Belgian Navy has renewed SeeByte’s SeeTrack licences for its existing AUV fleet, SeeByte announced on 20 April.
The renewal upgrades the software technology to the latest version of SeeTrack V4, and includes operational support and the company’s Automatic Target Recognition suite.
SeeTrack’s open-architecture software is a mission-planning, monitoring and post-mission analysis tool. The upgraded software package adds specialist modules designed for MCM operations, which include a change detection tool, performance analysis training tool and seafloor classification. These modules are designed to optimise SeeTrack V4 for survey operations, highlight relevant UMS sensor data to the operator, and improve situational awareness in challenging environments.
Alastair Cormack, technical client manager, SeeByte, said: ‘The SeeTrack V4 package offers software solutions to maximise the capabilities of unmanned maritime systems while maintaining operator control and situational awareness during potentially difficult mine countermeasure missions.
'This software allows decisions to be made using the best quality data available. We are delighted to continue working with the Belgian Navy and look forward to continuing supporting their systems.’
