US Nuclear Partners with QYSEA Technology for Innovative Underwater Solutions
July 09, 2019 – In an exciting development for the field of underwater robotics and environmental monitoring, US Nuclear Corporation (OTC: UCLE) has formalized a strategic alliance with QYSEA Technology. This partnership seeks to market, manufacture, and maintain state-of-the-art Industrial Underwater Robot Sensor Systems not only in the United States but on a global scale.
Headquartered in Shenzhen, China, QYSEA Technology is recognized as a frontrunner in the manufacturing of unmanned underwater vehicles (UUV), particularly known for the FIFISH line of professional Remote Operated Vehicles (ROVs) designed for inspection, photography, videography, and exploration.
A Perfect Match
The strategic move appears to be a natural progression for US Nuclear, which has successfully marketed its DroneRAD series of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), equipped with advanced radiation, chemical, and biological sensor technology. Following an impressive 777% growth in DroneRAD sales over the past year, the collaboration with QYSEA aims to capitalize on a similar customer base in the UUV market.
Robert Goldstein, CEO of US Nuclear Corp, remarked on the potential of this alliance, stating, “We will leverage our recent success in selling UAV sensors to the UUV market, allowing us to cater to a shared customer demographic. QYSEA Technology is an ideal partner for US Nuclear, and we eagerly anticipate providing unmanned robots capable of detecting radiation, chemicals, and biological pollutants underwater. This will pave the way for new avenues in underwater exploration.”
In this partnership, QYSEA will supply the underwater robots along with cameras and locomotion controls, while US Nuclear will integrate the sensors for radiological, chemical, and biological monitoring, alongside data collection and transmission software.
Revolutionary Features of QYSEA’s ROVs
Three models from QYSEA’s lineup—the FIFISH V6, P3, and X6—are poised to make a significant impact in various sectors. These robots offer several unique features, including:
- 4K UHD video capabilities with live-streaming options
- Maximum operational depth of 100 meters
- High maneuverability with six degrees of freedom
- Powerful 4000 lumens LED lights
- A high-definition camera equipped with a 1” Sony® CMOS sensor providing up to 20 Megapixels and a f/2.8 aperture
- An impressive 166° ultra wide-angle field of view
These technical attributes make them suitable for a myriad of applications, including underwater photography, filming, and ocean exploration. The integration of US Nuclear’s sensor technology adds a new dimension to their functionality by facilitating crucial data gathering.
Diverse Applications
The partnership unlocks numerous opportunities for applying these advanced underwater robots across various industries:
-
Aquaculture: Given that over 40% of seafood is cultivated artificially, FIFISH can monitor aquaculture facilities 24/7 under any weather conditions. Additionally, US Nuclear’s sensors help identify chemical or biological pollutants that could compromise these environments, providing a more effective alternative to traditional diving inspections.
-
Public Facilities: With power plants, dams, and reservoirs identified as high-risk locations, the FIFISH offers a safe and cost-effective means to monitor and collect essential data. US Nuclear’s radiation sensors are particularly valuable for power plants.
-
Shipyard/Harbor/Port: These robots can assist in conducting detailed hull inspections and surveys, streamlining processes in maritime operations.
- Border Control/Public Safety/Law Enforcement: With the integration of radiological sensors, the FIFISH has the potential to detect illicit nuclear materials, contributing to enhanced border security measures.
Exclusive Representation
As part of this alliance, US Nuclear will act as the exclusive North American sales representative for QYSEA’s nuclear and chemical application products, while also holding a non-exclusive reseller role for other market applications. Concurrently, QYSEA will serve as the representative for US Nuclear in China in these specialized sectors.
