Advanced software for efficient ROV piloting and high-quality data deliverables

NaviSuite Mobula is a plug-and-play ROV control and inspection software, allowing operators to plan and perform inspections efficiently – and enabling automation. With a variety of variants of this software bundle available, you can pick the one best tailored to your needs and budget.

The software provides high-performing features focusing on automated steering and inspection

Depending on the variant, these features can include assisted and automated steering modes; real-time quality control tools; real-time data displays and overlays; 3D model visualisations; observation logging; as well as automatic data cleaning. The end-result is extensive deliverables with high-quality inspection data.

The NaviSuite Mobula software bundle includes three variants. The NaviSuite Mobula Sonar variant for the VideoRay Mission Specialist Defender supports ROV inspections all the way from steering to data delivery and allows for…

  • Excellent ROV control through joystick steering in six degrees of freedom, as well as automatic and assisted steering with modes that include going to a selected waypoint, moving a defined distance and direction, scanning quay walls, orbiting a target, as well as holding a position
  • Data acquisition with scanning/mechanical imaging sonar and multi-beam imaging sonar
  • Configurable user interface and simultaneous data displays increasing situational awareness
  • Comprehensive data deliverables, such as fly-by videos and observation logs

Scroll down to check out an overview of what you get with the different variants in the product comparison table. For info on other ROV platforms supported, check out an overview of our ROV software.

Please note: When you purchase this product, you will receive a licence with NaviSuite Mobula Sonar and NaviSuite Mobula Sonar Config.

As each ROV type has its unique features, number of thrusters, camera types etc, the software is preconfigured to match a specific ROV type. This software variant is designed to support the Defender, however if your ROV model is not supported, EIVA will happily work with the producer to integrate it.

    What you get...

    Choose the bundle variant that matches your vehicle setup and your budget
    … ranging from variants dedicated to the essentials of performing inspections – all the way to NaviSuite Mobula Pro + Processing for advanced positioning setups, data fusion and reporting results with comprehensive data deliverables such as 3D models

    Improved situational awareness 
    … through a highly configurable user interface that is easy to tailor to your needs, bringing all relevant features to your monitor – including simultaneous views of 2D, 3D and 4D model visualisations, as well as real-time quality control tools

    Dive once and bring back all you need  
    … through data fusion capabilities allowing you to acquire and visualise data from the many supported sensors simultaneously

    Bring autonomy onboard your ROV
    … through assisted steering modes that make use of the wide range of positioning sensors supported and strong thruster control – these modes include going to a selected waypoint, moving a defined distance and direction, for example when scanning quay walls, orbiting a target, as well as holding a position

    Increased precision of data
    … through seamless interfacing between hardware and software

    Report results easily and clearly
    … with comprehensive data deliverables such as fly-by videos, which are integrated with an easy to use observation log tool – additionally, with the + Processing variant, you can generate 3D visualisations which your end-client can work in using the free NaviModel Viewer or the more advanced solution NaviModel Analyser.

    Overview at any time  
    … by combining all the data collect in one streamlined solution, you can replay your video recordings while showing where your ROV was at the exact time it was recording that video – if you are using the + Processing variant, this position can even be shown on the 3D model generated from your inspection

    Automatic data processing (only available in the + Processing variant)
    …. by enabling you to set up an automatic workflow in Workflow Manager, letting the software do the hard work even for massive amounts of data – with processing tools such as EIVA’s automatic data cleaning tool EC-3D which you can even run in real time during acquisition, so your 3D model can be automatically cleaned and ready to deliver by the time you’ve retrieved your ROV

    Taking your ROV inspections to the next level

    NaviSuite Kuda is the optimal solution for efficient ROV operations yielding high-quality data deliverables. This could for example be inspections of offshore wind turbine foundations, harbours and subsea assets, as well as UXO surveys and habitat mapping.

    This NaviSuite solution dedicated to ROV inspections draws on the powerful features of the NaviSuite software family. It provides cutting-edge software technology enabling automated operations – all at an affordable price.

    Take a test dive – Get a free 30-day trial package 

    EIVA offers all new users the opportunity to experience the benefits of NaviSuite Mobula first hand onboard your ROV with a free trial of the NaviSuite Mobula software, no strings attached. Feel free to reach out if you are interested.

    Other ROV models can join the NaviSuite family

    Note that while NaviSuite Mobula is available as a plug-and-play solution for Blue  Robotics BlueROV2 and VideoRay Defender ROVs, it can be integrated with any ROV – requiring just a little coding by the EIVA crew.

    Play and control video

    Synchronise video with track

    In NaviModel the track contains the date and time and must be synchronised with the video time to enable videos to play.

    Normally the video time and track time are recorded in the same time zone. However sometimes this is not the case and we need the option to change the video / track time so that video will play.

    Synchronise video with track

    Adjust video hue, brightness, contrast and gamma levels

    Hue, brightness, contrast and gamma levels can be adjusted to improve badly lit videos.
