Autonomous Monitoring
For aquaculture and science
Affordable and Reliable Monitoring
Our simple yet effective technology and cost-effective design ensure low production costs, making our products accessible. The Rope Rover utilizes the rope as its track, unaffected by tidal currents and sea conditions. Featuring internal propulsion, it eliminates the risk of propellers that could harm marine life or operators.
Easy and Safe Setup
Easily set up by one operator from the boat
Made in Ireland
Innovation crafted in Ireland
Highly Customisable
Customisable with the sensors of your choice
Safe for Marine Life
Propeller-free ensuring safety for marine life
Designed for many usecases
Rope Rover is an advanced AUV created for long-term monitoring in marine research and aquaculture. It features an easy setup, high customisability, straightforward operation, and cost-efficient performance.
Monitoring surf-zone
Mapping bathymetry and important near-shore habitats is impossible from the air and difficult to achieve with free-floating autonomous vehicles due to shallow and high-flow conditions. RopeRover can traverse across the surf zone using a movable rope.
Monitoring long-line aquaculture
Mussel and kelp lines require visual growth and parasite monitoring, typically achieved occasionally by manually pulling them up onto a vessel. RopeRover monitors autonomously and continuously and is reducing operator risk.
Monitoring farmed fish-cages
Farmed fish health can be monitored from RopeRover with no risk of injury (no propeller) and low noise.
