Deep Ocean Sampler with Underwater Hyperspectral Imaging System

The Deep Ocean Sampler is a cutting-edge 6000-meter-rated Light Work Class ROV equipped with advanced Underwater Hyperspectral Imaging (UHI) via our proprietary Hypercam, a precision manipulator arm, versatile sampling tools, and high-resolution scanning sonar.

This fully integrated platform empowers you to:

  • Fly precisely over targets of interest
  • Conduct detailed seabed surveys using the UHI Hypercam for non-invasive hyperspectral material identification
  • Collect physical samples for surface recovery
  • Perform on-site sample crushing and immediate in-situ chemical/mineralogical analysis—without needing to return materials to the surface
     

Transform your deep-sea exploration workflow. Move beyond traditional multi-week acoustic mapping followed by selective physical sampling. With a single efficient pass, the Deep Ocean Sampler delivers a comprehensive, non-invasive optical and chemical profile of the seafloor—accurately identifying and geo-referencing every material, mineral, polymetallic nodule, cobalt crust, and hydrothermal vent signature in real time.
 

Backed by >95% material classification accuracy demonstrated in rigorous Gulf of Mexico trials, this system provides unparalleled precision and efficiency for deep-ocean mineral exploration, environmental monitoring, and scientific research.

SHIPPING INFO

All in-stock AbyssaLite and AbyssalCam units ship within 3–5 business days of cleared payment from our Michigan facility. HyperCam and complete Deep Ocean Surveyor systems are built-to-order with typical lead times of 8–12 weeks (confirmed at purchase). Domestic U.S. shipments travel via insured FedEx Ground or Freight with tracking included and signature required. International orders are shipped DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) to most countries we cover duties, taxes, and customs clearance so you only pay the quoted price. All pressure-housing products receive a final 1.2× rated-depth hyperbaric test and calibration before packing, and are shipped in custom-fitted, waterproof Pelican or SKB cases. Expedited and white-glove delivery options are available on request. Shipping is free on orders over $25,000 within the continental U.S. Contact us for accurate quotes to Alaska, Hawaii, U.S. territories, or offshore platforms.
