 |
| Ranger is the diameter of a sonar buoy and weighs less than 20 kilograms, making it easy to handle in operational settings. It is quickly programmable with an Ethernet or WiFi connection. Ranger is easily launched and recovered by a single user operating from a RHIB (Rugged Hull Inflatable Boat) or other small craft, as well as from a ship or the shore. |

|
| Ranger is designed to carry a wide variety of payloads and sensors, ranging from a full set of water quality sensors to imaging sonar. Simple, well-defined interconnect requirements support the use of third-party sensors without extensive Non-Recurring Engineering efforts. |
