1. DESCRIPTION

1.1 PURPOSE

The product "GNOM" is designed for underwater works. Inspection and control of premises

located under water in coastal and inland waters, as well as in the control of reservoirs and

water works.

The main advantage of remotely operated vehicle is that you can see underwater full-

featured video

Command of underwater module is executed by operator from the shore (or the vessel) by

means of the control module, which is a part of the kit.

The modern computer and telecommunication technologies are used in the device, and

made it easy in handling, compact, light and inexpensive.

These solutions allowed to use thin (only 10 mm diameter) and flexible communication

cable for transmission data, power and video signals to/from vehicle. The special Kevlar

threads have been used to improve the cable's tensile strength. Because of this fact, the

device keeps the highest degree of stabilization what is very important for inspections. The

vehicle has a good maneuverability and can easily turn on the spot.

High-effective electric motors with magnetic couplings and hi-tech electronics are used in

the vehicle, provide the fast speed of the GNOM with low power consumption.

One of the most important features of this device is a possibility to operate it from PC and

via Lan/Internet.

The GNOM, in essence, an underwater helicopter with the video-camera which moves in

any direction according to the operator's instructions.
