The Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) has signed a contract with BUVI Scandinavia AB to deliver EvoLogics’ unmanned surface vessel Sonobot 5 to the Swedish Armed Forces. The vessel will primarily be used within the field engineering domain to survey waterways before the establishment of floating bridge systems. The contract value is 43 million SEK, including options.

AI-based systems enable automatic object detection and collision-free navigation for EvoLogics autonomous vehicles. Ensuring safe navigation in dynamic environments is critical for autonomous marine vehicles. The AI-powered obstacle avoidance system enables our USVs and AUVs to detect and avoid obstacles in real time, maintaining mission efficiency while minimizing risk.

BUVI Scandinavia began in 2026 by conducting a seabed survey using the Sonobot 5 USV, equipped with high‑resolution side scan sonar, in preparation for an upcoming subsea power cable installation. See the movie

The Sonobot USV equipped with side scan sonar provides researchers with a highly efficient and non-invasive way to study aquatic environments. Its advanced imaging capabilities allow for detailed mapping of riverbeds, lakes, and coastal areas,

M7 Integrated Multibeam Sonar is a highly-versatile, high-resolution multibeam echo sounder, which is also extremely simple to use and to install on the vehicle.

Geoinformation underpins decision-making in urban planning, transport and energy infrastructure, defense, military missions, disaster prevention, response and environmental protection. EvoLogics brings 25 years of innovation in underwater communication, positioning and robotics. Read and see the movie

Security, search and surveillance for harbour areas, shallow waters and offshore installations. In today's rapidly changing world, being prepared is key, where every second counts and every mission demands precision.
