About Blueye X3 Ultra
Blueye X3 Ultra combines four-thruster mobility with a 4K HDR zoom camera and NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX compute. Real-time image filters improve colour and contrast in dark or turbid water, and onboard processing supports computer vision and situational-awareness applications.
Three guest ports connect sonar, grippers, positioning systems and environmental sensors through Ethernet, serial and USB interfaces. The ROV is rated to 305 metres and supports batteries providing up to five hours. Blueye supplies mission planning, cloud tools, SDK access and professional payload integrations.
