Provides touchless subsea asset positioning

Page last modified

August 6 2024

Fugro's QuickVision® is a patented smart vision camera that provides accurate subsea asset positioning during offshore construction projects to reduce overall time, costs and safety risks.

It uses fiducial marker patterns attached to subsea assets that are detected and tracked by algorithms in the QuickVision® camera. This enables absolute positioning of assets by tracking patterns, relative positioning between assets, and navigation of ROVs relative to structures - all without installing physical sensors.

QuickVision® also provides augmented reality tools, such as virtual inclinometers, heading compasses, and 3D structure models that can be overlaid on the live video feed to support touchless survey operations. Accuracy is within 1 metre and 1-2 degrees for position and orientation. The system is automated with advanced alignment to the ROV so no calibration is required. QuickVision® reduces the need for sensor installation, lifting gear, vessel time, and diving operations which improves project schedules, safety and sustainability.

Pros & Limitations

Accelerate project schedules by removing need for bespoke sensor brackets and sensor removal

Improve safety by removing need for lifting/diving operations and keeping ROV at safe distance

Reduces pile positioning time by 75% on live projects

Accurate and touchless solution using computer vision

Seamless camera-ROV alignment removing need for calibrations

Simple and easy to use system enabling remote operations

Sustainable operations by reducing vessel time and carbon footprint

Operational depth limit of 4000 m
