Rover SRV-8X Optimus The SRV-8X Optimus underwater rover is an updated and technologically more advanced version of its predecessor SRV-8, developed by the Austro-German company Oceanbotics.

Its dimensions are 64 x 51 x 43 cm, weight 25 kg, which is twice as much as that of the "big brother", while it is 2.5 times more powerful, thanks to eight vector DC electric motors.

Rover SRV-8X Optimus Unlike underwater vehicles with external power, Optimus has energy autonomy due to two replaceable lithium batteries with an eight-hour working life.

The rover is controlled by a remote operator via a lightweight, movable 250-meter fiber-optic cable.

Rover SRV-8X Optimus The updated rover can dive to a depth of 500 meters, which is 200 meters deeper than its predecessor.

In the dark at great depth, four LED spotlights with a total brightness of 6000 lumens help him navigate. Remote control is carried out through a conventional X-Box controller and a built-in camera with a resolution of 1080p. One-handed control is also provided using an additional joystick resembling an airplane control stick. SRV-8X Optimus can be used for inspection of underwater structures, exploration, searching for objects at great depth and lifting them to the surface.
