Not all families are created equal.
Defining autonomous operations through three decades of proven track record. HUGIN delivers the complete package of reliable, effective and autonomous inspection of subsea assets and environments.
This family doesnt follow. It leads.
A legacy of superior quality and reliability sets the standard for where to go next.
HUGIN is continously evolving and raising the bar for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV).
Cutting Edge Autonomy
Smarter mission-planning and execution
HUGIN doesn’t just follow instructions—it understands objectives. With goal-based mission planning and adaptive autonomy, it transforms complex underwater operations into streamlined, intelligent missions. From launch to recovery, HUGIN operates independently—navigating terrain, avoiding obstacles, and identifying anomalies in real time. No need for a large crew or constant oversight.
Superior data quality
Precision data you can trust
When the mission demands clarity, HUGIN delivers. Its advanced sensor suite —including HISAS 1032 synthetic aperture sonar and EM2040 multibeam echo sounders — HUGIN captures ultra-high-resolution imagery and bathymetry up to a 1000-meter swath.
Every pixel is precisely positioned thanks to world-class inertial navigation.
Weeks of Endurance
From shore to seafloor. And back again.
HUGIN Endurance is built for long missions—up to 16 days and 2200 km—without resurfacing or recharging. Whether surveying pipelines or securing infrastructure, it stays submerged and operational when others can’t.
More uptime. More coverage. More mission accomplished.
Strength has been built upon strength, leading us to where we are today, with cutting edge autonomy, superior data quality and unbeatable endurance. But the figures and specifications don’t tell the full story. It’s the reliability out in the field that, for me, is the gamechanger.

A force-multiplier for defense
When the mission is critical, trust the AUV that’s already proven itself in the world’s most demanding theatres.
From mine countermeasures to seabed warfare and ISR, the HUGIN family delivers autonomous capability with unmatched reliability, precision, and endurance—without the need for a support vessel. Built for rapid deployment, trusted in covert operations, and engineered for results that command decisions.
Securing commercial operations
Whether you’re inspecting pipelines, surveying cables, or mapping the seafloor, HUGIN delivers high-resolution data with minimal crew, minimal risk, and maximum efficiency. With goal-based autonomy, rapid battery swaps, and proven performance in shallow and deep water alike, HUGIN is the AUV that works as hard as you do.
Scientific research
From polar research to deep-sea discovery, the HUGIN family empowers scientists with precise, high-quality data—collected autonomously, even in the harshest environments. With flexible payloads, adaptive navigation, and a legacy of exploration, HUGIN is the trusted partner for those discovering the secrets of the ocean.
