Innova Micro Matrix
Unique Group now offers the Innova Micro Matrix, a smaller stand-alone fibre optic multiplexer and control solution, providing a simple, plug and play interface for a large array of sensors and equipment to any remotely operated system. Ideally suited to smaller vehicles, the Micro Matrix provides many of the high specification features of the well proven Matrix II but in a smaller form factor.
Features
Micro Matrix™ is the response to a growing need for compact ROV systems carrying a larger spread of sensors. Based on the same proven technology as the successful Matrix™ MKII+ and Mini Matrix™, the Micro Matrix™ provides a plug and play interface for sensors in an extremely compact package.
Micro Matrix™ supports most dual head multibeam systems available on the market. By combining several 1 Gbps Ethernet and serial channels together with the availability of both 24 VDC and 48 VDC, the Micro Matrix™ is an ideal system for adding advanced survey capabilities with minimal weight and size requirements.
