Strong resistance to impact & high correction resistance: Alpha ARK-S is made of Kevlar & carbon fiber composites material in acid, alkali and correction resistance, which is lighter in weight, strong in impact resistance, good in sealing. Its remarkable hull design is convenient for transmission and reliable placement. Safety protection mechanism: Worry-free protection of automatically return after completing the preset missions or lost communication, or the battery is in low voltage, which comprehensive ensure navigation and equipment safety. Inbuilt high-precision GNSS module: Alpha ARK-S navigates with a built-in GNSS module which can provide high- precision position, making underwater measurements more accurate without carrying additional GNSS equipment, easy of one-man operation. Accessible communications: Real-time RF point-to-point communication, barrier-free data transmission, meeting various operating environments. Smart control system: Autonomously performing collection missions according to the planned route, and real-time adjustment of navigation attitude with the help of water flow adaptive adjustment system. Multiple control modes can be switched with one button to easily cope with various operating conditions.
