Photon ROV FAQ

Yes — the PHOTON supports modular add-ons including imaging sonar, USBL/DVL positioning, grabbers and extended tether options.

As with most configurations (battery pack, tether length, add-ons) the exact spec affects cost and delivery. Contact vendor for quote specifics.

Extremely portable — compact dimensions and lightweight design (26 kg weight in the air) mean it can be transported relatively easily and deployed quickly in remote or confined environments.
