RNLN integrates SeeByte’s Neptune into AUV fleet
The Royal Netherlands Navy (RNLN) has integrated SeeByte’s Neptune software into its fleet of Remus 100 AUVs, the company announced on 28 September.
In addition to expediting and optimising single and multi-vehicle operations, Neptune can be used to coordinate fleets of unmanned assets for MCM missions allowing operators to coordinate various assets to search, classify and map, reacquire and identify operations as part of a single mission.
By combining all the mission plans and monitoring in a single work station and user interface, teams are able to manage larger fleets of unmanned assets without putting additional strain on operators.
Alastair Cormack, technical client manager, SeeByte, said: ‘We are privileged to be in a position to continue working with the RNLN and assist in their goal to achieve security at and from the sea. With the US, UK and Canadian navies currently using Neptune software, it is fantastic that the RNLN will now have access to the advanced capabilities we offer.’
