The Dynautics Spectre range of autopilots offers precise vehicle control technology for the manned and unmanned market. The algorithms have been developed over thousands of miles of navigation and across hundreds of vehicle types. The range is precise, adaptive and reliable.

Undertaking a survey, either of a lake or open water, is a challenging and expensive activity involving vehicle management, safety, data collection and vehicle control. Dynautics Spectre Survey Package Module (SPM) allows the user to focus on data collection in the confidence that the vehicle is navigating the automatically generated survey grid.

Dynautics has developed a range of interface protocols that ensures surveys with either EIVA, HydroMagic, Hypack or QPS packages are faster, easier and result in better data collection.

Integration with a range of survey packages, through the Spectre Autopilot plugin, means that the survey plan can be designed within the survey application. Survey tracks and vessel control are within one software package, making surveying quicker and easier.

Integration with Hypack is achieved by outputting NMEA0183 TNT messages from the survey package into a serial port which provides signals to control the autopilot.

The Spectre range of autopilots have interfaces with major survey software packages. The E-Boat Autopilot module shown above is an example of the range used to control smaller electrically propelled vessels.

The planning of survey lines, in this case within the HydroMagic survey package, saves the surveyor time and helps improve survey accuracy.
