Apache 3

Product catalog summary

Overview: The APACHE 3 is a compact hydrographic drone designed for marine survey and construction tasks. It is lightweight, made from macromolecule polyester carbon fiber and Kevlar fiber-glass, and can be operated by a single person. Its design allows for easy transport, installation, calibration, and mission processing.

Design and Performance: The drone features a pocket-hulled vessel design, less than 1 meter in length, suitable for operations in shoals, channels, and shallow rivers. It maintains balance in rapid currents and ensures high accuracy under bridges through the integration of GNSS and IMU sensors, which provide precise position and attitude data.

Technology and Features: The APACHE 3 integrates high precision GNSS positioning and heading technology, ensuring accurate bathymetric surveys in autonomous mode. It is equipped with a DC-injection rotary motor that increases energy conversion efficiency by 40%, and features an anti-collision design with a sealed straw cover and oblique titanium alloy mesh for durability.

Cost-Effectiveness: The drone includes a single beam echo sounder for bathymetric surveys of lakes, inland rivers, and coastal areas. It supports seamless 4G communication, eliminating traditional network limitations, and features dual GNSS positioning and heading sensors for uninterrupted surveys.

Specifications: The APACHE 3 has a maximum motor speed of 7,000 rpm, a battery endurance of 2 x 2 hours at 2 m/s, and a hull dimension of 1 m x 0.65 m x 0.3 m. It is designed to withstand 3rd wind level and 2nd wave level conditions, with a maximum payload of 25 kg. The communication system includes a 4G modem, UHF radio, and various data formats and interfaces.

Additional Features: The drone is equipped with a 360° omnidirectional video system, supports manual or auto-pilot navigation, and has a remote control range of 1 km. It is waterproof with an IP65 rating and features auto-return functionality in case of low battery or signal loss.
