New Product – Water Linked Underwater GPS system
BlueRobotics just announced a partnership with Water Linked, a Norwegian company, and the release of a revolutionarily low-cost Underwater GPS system. This new product, the Water Linked Underwater GPS Developer Kit combines a traditional GPS receiver and compass with an acoustic positioning system to provide positioning information underwater. Orders are expected to start shipping mid-June 2017.
Blue Robotics is the first and only distributor for this system, and the underwater GPS system will also be supported out of the box in ArduSub and the BlueROV2.
