BORDER CONTROL & CUSTOMS
Border Control and Customs teams are confronted with formidable challenges due to the high rates of drug smuggling, human trafficking, and illegal migration on a global scale. To enhance the management of this complex area of law enforcement, teams frequently rely on the SRS FUSION Remotely Operated Vehicle to improve safety and efficiency in their operations.
HOW IS THE FUSION USED IN BORDER CONTROL & CUSTOMS?
The state-of-the-art SRS FUSION ROV is an indispensable tool relied upon by Border Force and Customs teams worldwide for their critical operations.
SHIP HULL INSPECTION
By combining the cutting-edge Blueprint Subsea Oculus Imaging Sonar and Reach Robotics HD Camera, inspecting a ship's hull has never been more seamless. Given that ships can be vulnerable to explosives and used as hiding spots for illicit substances, these surveys play a crucial role in preventative operations.
BALLAST TANK INSPECTION
In the same vein as ship hull inspections, the FUSION seamlessly employs the cutting-edge Blueprint Subsea Oculus Imaging Sonar and Reach Robotics HD Camera to conduct thorough inspections of ballast tanks. By maneuvering the ROV inside the tank, concealed drugs or explosives can be swiftly and effectively detected. This solidifies the FUSION's pivotal role as a crucial asset in combating smuggling activities.
PORT AND HARBOR INSPECITON
Border and Customs teams conscientiously monitor harbors and ports as an integral part of their daily operations. The FUSION proves again and again to be a vital tool for Border Force worldwide, enabling quick and comprehensive surveys of large water areas, regardless of water visibility levels.
DIVER WATER SAFETY
Many Border Control and Customs teams rely on their divers to recover objects and evidence in risky operations. Utilizing the FUSION in the search area allows dive teams to assess any potential hazards to the diver, as well as the current's speed and direction. This enhances the safety of diving in dangerous waters.
MAKING SEARCHES FASTER AND EASIER
In time-sensitive operations, the FUSION empowers Border Control and Customs teams to swiftly execute underwater tasks with efficiency and speed.
TARGET LOCATION
With its standard integrated suite of sensors, the FUSION simplifies the process of locating both small and large targets during search and recovery missions, surpassing many other ROVs. Our custom software seamlessly combines these sensors to enhance the speed, efficiency, and safety of these critical operations.
EVIDENCE RECOVERY
Physical evidence entering a body of water must be retrieved and preserved quickly, and the FUSION is the ideal tool. The vehicle’s integrated sensor suite facilitates rapid target location and identification, in support of Border Control and Customs missions internationally.
