The Solus-XR AUV from Cellula Robotics is set to revolutionize underwater exploration and research. With its hydrogen fuel cell technology, this ultra-large class unmanned vehicle is capable of traveling up to 5,000 km without support vessels, making it ideal for missions under the ice. Sea trials have been underway since late August 2023 off the coast of West Vancouver, British Columbia, and the Solus-XR is already being hailed as one of Canada's largest unmanned underwater vehicles ever created.
Designed as an upgrade to the Solus-LR device, the Solus-XR boasts impressive capabilities that make it stand out from other underwater vehicles. Its ability to move along the route "from port to port" means it can operate without the support of a port, making it an invaluable tool for a range of missions. During sea trials, the Solus-XR's surface characteristics and autonomy in a dynamic marine environment will be tested, paving the way for future underwater exploration.
Looking ahead, Cellula Robotics plans to conduct demonstration missions in 2024 to showcase the full range of Solus-XR capabilities in real-world scenarios. With its cutting-edge technology and impressive capabilities, the Solus-XR is set to change the face of underwater exploration and research. \\
