AUV YUCO

Big revolution in a small Pink AUV Reflecting SEABER’s co-founders, YUCO gathers boldness, innovation, reliability and efficiency. The name YUCO finds its roots in the Patagonian Selk’nam tribe whose people had reputation to be stiff and resilient to extreme environments. YUCO also means “sharp”, which reflects the excellence and originality of the team and appears on the shape of the nose. We’ve united all our know-how to make YUCO an uniquely reliable tool combining exceptional performances and low maintenance, which is operable in all types of coastal waters. Changing the uses in AUVs A simple glance at the YUCO is reflecting the disruptive approach of YUCO micro-AUV. We worked hard to make the AUV technology now accessible to all types of users and be really used as an autonomous platform that you trust underwater release operator to perform other tasks meanwhile. We focus on single task “off-the-self” micro-AUVs affordable and reliable that can be delivered swiftly and deployed just after being received. A robust bio-inspired design AUVs robustness is an important point and the first risk for an AUV is water leaks, for instance in the mast area and the fins. To ensure perfect sealing, YUCO is compartmented in 2 sections. The dry section located in the middle and rear area is never to be opened by the user. This section hosts everything dedicated to navigation, including batteries, actuators, localization sensors and embedded electronics. The wet section located in the front (nose) hosts the payloads (measurement devices) which are accessible to users. The wet section also embeds all necessary connectors, for quick plug-and-play integration of new sensors.
