ECA Group solutions to be presented at MAST 2017

During you visit, you will find on ECA Group booth: 

Robotics & Integrated Systems

ECA Group as been focusing for many years, robust R&D efforts in order to develop systems of robots. These unmanned solutions are optimized to successfully perform missions in the field of Oceanography, Hydrography and Underwater Mine Counter Measures.

At MAST, ECA Group will be presenting its innovative unmanned and remotely operated vehicles solutions, as well as its own fully integrated suite for Mine Warfare called Unmanned Mine Counter Measures Integrated System UMIS.

During your visit on ECA Group booth you will discover ECA Group's wide range of: 

• Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs)
• Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)
• Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs)
• Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs)

Discover ECA Group solutions for Underwater Mine Warfare

Training Simulation

ECA Group is also engaged in Naval Training Simulation: its solutions ranges from Mine Warfare Data Management training to Surface Ship and Submarine Tactical simulation. ECA Group offers many simulation training possibilities : from single system for individual training to team trainers to the more complex multi-platform simulators.

"SeaScan: an innovative multi-shot identification platform"

by Dr Marc Pinto, ECA Group Integrated Systems of Robots Director

Conventional Naval mine hunting consists of two phases. MIne-LIke COntacts (MILCOs) are detected and localized, then sorted into two categories, non-mines and mines, before proceeding their disposal. Depending on this, decision is made as to whether or not clear the mines. Thus, the need for an efficient identification platform.

To break from conventional mine hunting practices, ECA Group’s Unmanned MIne-countermeasures System UMIS, was successfully tested at sea, with its identification platform SeaScan which consists of a multi-shot identification ROV with sonar/optical sensors. UMIS system uses SEASCAN MK2 for Mine identification and the K-STER C mine disposal system for neutralization and can be used collaboratively with the embedded Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) in A9-M AUV or A18-M AUV, to reduce the MCM Missions duration.

Seascan is a ROV dedicated to inspection missions. Its unique architecture ensures hovering capability and stability in turbulent water. Easy to deploy from any kind of platform, the user friendly command and control software offers auto piloting functions to improve mission efficiency. It is battery operated with 3h endurance, can operate up to 300m and in up to 3 knot currents without the limitations of traditional ROVs with an umbilical. The system features automated launch, recovery and recharging from an Unmanned Surface Vehicles . Acting as a communication gateway with Autonomous Underwater Vehicles. The USV also, allows data to be ex-filtrated and relayed to a remote Command and Control Center at safe standoff range. This data is analyzed and the list of MILCOs is produced, which is then used to plan the SeaScan missions.
