When a bunch of robotics enthusiast IITian’s work with the
experts of their field what comes out of the closet is Planys Technologies- designing ‘ROVer’ of a different kind. The
only start-up of its kind Planys is the first and currently the only Original
Equipment Manufacturer(OEM) of ROV’s in Indian subcontinent.
All About Planys Technologies

post-inspection analysis tools. It provides services in different domains such
as Subsea Video & Photographic Mapping, Ultrasonic Thickness Measurement, Corrosion
Protection Inspection, Visual inspection, Technical & Scientific Reporting,
Sampling & Survey.
Mike-Product of Planys
R&D
MIKE is an electric remotely operated submersible
vehicle specifically built for robust and calibrated visual inspection of
offshore immersed structures. Classified under the observation class of ROVs,
MIKE has the capability of reaching 100m depth, 6 degree of freedom control and
unlimited endurance. Multiple on-board HD cameras with high intensity LED
illumination provide live, clear and stable visual feedback to ROV pilot &
surveyor. A exclusively developed advanced navigation and active control algorithms
are tailored for live video and photo recordings under wave action and ocean
currents. The design allows for control station to be positioned at a safe
on-shore/on-ship site and rapid assembly and operation at field conditions

Planys was one among the top five finalist from
India in the MIS 2015- DP World prize (Maritime India Summit). According to Ministry of
Shipping, 95% of India’s trading by volume and 70% by value is done through
maritime transport and thus the demand and value of underwater vehicle which
are programmable robotic devices is increasing two folds. So Planys is not far
away to become a world leading provider of customizable automated inspection
solutions for onshore and offshore submerged structures.
