SeeByte renews UK MASTT software licences
SeeByte has renewed all SeeTrack and Neptune licences currently used by the Royal Navy’s Maritime Autonomous Systems Trials Team (MASTT), the company announced on 18 July.
SeeByte is a part of the UK’s Defence Equipment and Support Mine Countermeasures and Hydrographic Capability programme. Working in collaboration with Atlas Elektronik UK, SeeByte will provide full support and maintenance for MASTT. The software is integrated into MASTT's AUV fleet to coordinate the vehicles during mine countermeasure missions (MCM).
SeeByte’s SeeTrack provides a single integrated system to enable mission planning, vehicle monitoring and sensor post-mission analysis for all unmanned assets for survey operations. SeeByte’s Neptune, run through SeeTrack, provides payload control architecture, goal based mission planning and real-time autonomy engine to plan and execute well known patterns of behaviour.
Additional specialist modules purchased for MASTT include an embedded Automatic Target Recognition to optimise MCM missions and aid MILOC detection. These additional specialist modules will also be renewed with full support and maintenance.
