SubSLAM X3 offers real-time, high-resolution 3D mapping and is set to improve the efficiency and accuracy of underwater operations.  Innovative Integration of AI and Robotics 

London, UK - October 16th: Beam, a leader in offshore wind AI driven technology services, unveils SubSLAM X3, a new underwater perception system designed to enhance the monitoring and maintenance of offshore wind farms. SubSLAM X3 offers real-time, high-resolution 3D mapping and is set to improve the efficiency and accuracy of underwater operations. 

Innovative Integration of AI and Robotics 
SubSLAM X3 system integrates artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and advanced simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) technologies. This integration is critical for streamlining the development, construction, and maintenance phases of offshore wind projects. The system provides 4K resolution video and precise 3D reconstructions, allowing for detailed inspection of underwater assets and intelligent autonomous control of underwater vehicles. 
Technological Enhancements for Greater Precision 
Beam has significantly upgraded the imaging and computational capabilities of SubSLAM X3 compared to its predecessor, SubSLAM X2. These enhancements facilitate quicker and more accurate visualization, analysis, and measurement of offshore infrastructure. Additionally, the new V3.0 software improves the system's ability to assist pilots in navigating difficult underwater terrains, making it easier to capture detailed 3D models. The system also offers improved synchronization with third-party sensors including sonar fusion, increasing its versatility in various operational settings. 
Compact Design for Robust Operations 
The newly designed SubSLAM X3 is more compact and lightweight than its previous version, making it suitable for integration into smaller observation-class remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) as well as larger work-class ROVs. Despite its reduced size, the system is capable of operating at depths up to 3000 meters and features enhanced sensor technology for improved image quality, especially in low-light conditions. These features ensure reliable performance even under challenging environmental conditions. 
Enhancing Operational Efficiency 
"SubSLAM X3 represents a significant leap forward in our ability to serve the offshore wind industry," said Ross Hilditch, Senior Product Manager at Beam. "This system not only enhances our capabilities in terms of data collection and asset inspection but also significantly reduces the operational footprint required for such activities. It's about doing more with less, safely and sustainably."
