⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Captain Elena Petrov - Baltic Sea Shipyard
"We’ve been using the AVA-U13 Pro Model for underwater hull cleaning since February 2025, and it’s transformed our maintenance workflow. The IP68 waterproofing is flawless—submerged daily in brackish water with zero seal failures. We customized it with rotating scrubber modules and a sonar array for real-time biofouling assessment. Its amphibious capability means it rolls from dock to dive without extra lifting gear. Battery lasts through two full vessel cleanings per charge. A game-changer for eco-friendly port operations."Purchase Date: February 2025 | Usage Period: 6 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ James Carter - Offshore Construction Project Lead
"Deployed the AVA-U13 Advanced Model on a coastal windfarm foundation site in October 2024. Needed a robot that could haul sensor kits across muddy tidal flats and transition into shallow water inspections. The enhanced track traction handled silt and submerged rocks without slipping. We added a LiDAR module and waterproof camera—modular design made integration seamless. CE certification gave us quick regulatory approval. After 8 months of near-daily use, the metal frame shows minimal wear. Exceeded durability expectations."Purchase Date: October 2024 | Usage Period: 8 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Dr. Amina Diallo - Marine Conservation Initiative
"Using the Base Model for estuary monitoring since May 2025. It’s perfect for our budget-conscious project tracking sediment pollution in delta zones. The electric propulsion ensures zero water contamination during sampling runs. We attached a water quality sensor pod and GPS logger—plug-and-play compatibility worked first try. Only drawback: 4-hour battery limits coverage in large zones. Still, it’s far more adaptable than previous ROVs. Waterproof integrity remains solid after 120+ deployments."Purchase Date: May 2025 | Usage Period: 3 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Diego Mendez - Open-Pit Mine Automation Specialist
"We operate in extreme conditions—dust, mud, and seasonal flooding. The AVA-U13 Pro Model arrived in January 2025 and now handles equipment transport across flooded access roads. Widened the tracks per the customization guide for better floatation in slurry. The 65 kg payload carries critical spare parts where trucks can’t go. IP68 rating survived a full submersion incident during a flash flood. No corrosion on the metal frame despite constant exposure to acidic runoff. This thing is indestructible."Purchase Date: January 2025 | Usage Period: 7 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Lena Vogt - European Flood Relief Unit
"Purchased two Base Models in November 2024 for post-flood inspection missions. Used them to scout submerged debris and deliver emergency sensors in flooded basements. Amphibious transition was critical—no need to reconfigure between land and water. Lightweight enough for rapid deployment, but sturdy enough to push through wreckage. Battery life is tight during extended ops, but field charging works well. EPR France compliance simplified cross-border logistics. Would love a future model with thermal imaging support."Purchase Date: November 2024 | Usage Period: 7 months
Average Rating: 4.7/5 ⭐ (89 Reviews)
Dr. Henrik Sorensen - Naval Automation Consultant
"The AVA-U13 series sets a new benchmark for amphibious industrial robots. Its IP68 rating and modular payload system address two major pain points in underwater maintenance: reliability and adaptability. Unlike single-use ROVs, this platform supports rapid reconfiguration—ideal for shipyards adopting robotic fleet standardization."
Dr. Fatima Ndiaye - Aquatic Ecosystems Researcher
"For environmental teams needing hybrid land-water data collection, the AVA-U13’s electric drive and sensor compatibility offer unmatched versatility. I recommend the Advanced Model for projects requiring extended mission times and enhanced terrain navigation in fragile coastal zones."
