The YUCO-PHYSICO micro-AUV carries a fully autonomous multiparameter sonde for physico-chemical water quality monitoring. It supports interchangeable sensors such as sound velocity, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, pH, chlorophyll A, and crude oil detection. Offers great manoeuvrability, optional DVL, and up to 10 hours autonomy.
Uses:
Water quality monitoring in varied depths
Monitoring narrow and shallow micro-structures
Environmental assessments of physico-chemical parameters
Autonomous AUV for Versatile Physico-Chemical Water Quality Monitoring
The YUCO-PHYSICO is a fully autonomous micro-AUV designed to revolutionise physico-chemical water quality monitoring. Engineered for both surface and subsurface surveys, YUCO-PHYSICO combines extended autonomy, flexible sensor integration, and advanced navigation to provide one of the most versatile platforms for aquatic environmental data collection.
Unlike systems limited to one or two sensors, the YUCO-PHYSICO integrates a full multiparameter sonde, allowing users to configure a broad range of water quality parameters based on mission needs. Compatible with most sensors offered by the sonde manufacturer, the system can monitor conductivity, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, pH, sound velocity, chlorophyll A, crude oil, and more all within a compact and easily deployable vehicle.
• Embedded multiparameter sonde for real-time physico-chemical data collection
• Compatible with a wide range of sensors (e.g., DO, turbidity, pH, conductivity, SVP, crude oil, chlorophyll A)
• Optional DVL integration for enhanced navigation in current-prone environments
• Excellent manoeuvrability in shallow and confined waters, ideal for studying micro-structures
• INX navigation system for accurate and stable positioning
• SEAPLAN mission software for intuitive mission planning and multiple navigation modes
• Ideal for both open water surveys and targeted measurements in complex or sensitive environments
Applications examples:
The YUCO-PHYSICO offers two major operational advantages:
Sensor interchangeability: Easily swap sensors from the sonde based on specific monitoring requirements.
Removable sonde functionality: The sonde can be detached and used independently for manual profiling, offering added flexibility during field operations.
The YUCO-PHYSICO micro-AUV is the ideal solution for researchers, environmental managers, and monitoring agencies seeking a robust, autonomous, and adaptable tool for water quality assessment in lakes, rivers, estuaries, and coastal environments.
