What
is the REMUS Vehicle Interface Program (VIP)?
The REMUS VIP is an intuitive graphical
interface that allows anyone to become an AUV operator
with just a few hours of training. It allows the user
to view the vehicle's status, program missions and download
the data - all from one easy to use program.

How
long does it take to run a typical mission?
With the versatility that REMUS offers,
there is no defined “typical” mission. As
an example, to run a mission that is 1 Km at high speed,
3M altitude, 30 meter side scan range, 150% side scan coverage
would take <3 hours. By varying a large number of
user definable parameters, mission time can be reduced
or extended.

What
type of support equipment is needed?
REMUS is supplied as a complete “turn
key” system. The REMUS vehicle and supporting
components are shipped in sturdy hardened plastic cases.
Within these cases you’ll find everything required,
including acoustic navigation sources, floats and weights,
vehicle tracking unit, ruggedized laptop and spare parts
kit and cables.
