1000 m depth rating
Hydro 1000
Reliable deep water photogrammetry for challenging subsea environmentsHydro 1000 is a deep water photogrammetry unit engineered for ease of use and seamless deployment while ensuring data reliability.
Intuitive deployment, simple to use
Millimetric accuracy
Reduces operational costs, saves time
Enables confident, data-driven decisions
This unit leverages our technology and its benefits, including millimetric accuracy and performance in low-visibility conditions. Optimized for deep-water environments, the Hydro 1000 is built with pressure-resistant materials such as titanium to control payload weight.
Hydro 1000 helps you reduce inspection time and operational costs and stay on track even under tight and changing timelines. It is compatible with a wide range of ROVs, from Light Work Class to Work Class.
