Title

 

The autonomous surface platform is overactuated with 4 thrusters forming the ”X” configuration. This configuration enables symmetrical motion in the horizontal plane under any orientation. The platform has been developed at the University of Zagreb Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing, Laboratory for Underwater Systems and Technologies. The platform was primarily developed for dynamic positioning and diver following and since then it’s application was extended to execution of multiple autonomous tasks.

The vehicle with its commercial name H2Omni-X, is produced, distributed and sold through the company H2O robotics (https://h2o-robotics.com/).
