Product Description

The autonomous control system enables APACHE 4 to navigate straight along the cross-section according to the profile view when the flow rate, turbulence, etc., changes. The hovering technology can make APACHE 4 hover stably in the turbulent flow at the start and end points of ADCP observation, thereby improving the accuracy of flow estimation.
