Cerulean Sonar Omnitrack ROV Positioning System

The Omnitrack System implements full fusion of DVL and USBL position data for high-rate position updates and zero long-term drift. These features, plus position hold and full SonarView support, are fully integrated for ROVs utilizing the open-source ArduSub autopilot.

Cerulean Engineers are available and ready to assist with integration into other ROV autopilot solutions.

Coming Q2 2025 Final pricing and availability for pre-order in May.

Specifications  Omnitrack Surface Module

Introducing the Omnitrack Surface Module, a complete top-side USBL deployment system. The Omnitrack Surface Module integrates the newest version of our proven ROV Locator technology, internal IMU, dual GNSS modules, a rigid "T" frame, and Ethernet connectivity. The GNSS compass ensures high heading accuracy, eliminates the tedious, time-consuming, and error-prone magnetic compass calibration, and is completely immune to magnetic interference.

The Omnitrack Surface Module T-frame folds and unfolds easily for transport and quick deployment. With an optional flotation ring, deployment is quick and easy from a boat or a pier. Ethernet connectivity and 10-30V power are supplied over a single standard CAT5 or better cable.

Wireless Option

A wireless option is available with an optional long-range Wi-Fi + power module. The BlueBoat can also be leveraged for power and wireless connectivity with the optional BlueBoat mounting kit.

Simplex Version (ROVL Mk II) The lowest-cost variant uses simplex communication, where a transmit-only "pinger" is on the ROV, and the Omnitrack Surface Module has a receive-only USBL assembly. Automatic synchronization is accomplished via internal GNSS modules in each unit whenever they are out of the water.

Duplex Version (ROVL Mk III) For even simpler and drift-free operation, the Duplex version of the Omnitrack Surface Module utilizes a transceiver to send a ping to a transponder on the ROV and receive the response. No out-of-water synchronization is required.
