Experience the Future of Underwater Technology in Tokyo
Space One, a pioneering robotics company based in Koriyama, Fukushima, is offering a unique opportunity to engage with cutting-edge underwater technologies. On September 19, 2025, the Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology will host a free experience event focusing on their latest underwater drones and pipeline inspection crawlers. This event is a must-attend for professionals interested in integrating these innovative tools into their operations.
Addressing Infrastructure Challenges
As infrastructure ages, regions that have been long overlooked for inspections are now showing signs of decay, highlighting significant social issues. The use of advanced technology like underwater drones and crawlers is becoming increasingly vital for inspection and investigation. Space One’s event allows participants to witness and operate these machines in realistic conditions, providing invaluable insight into their capabilities and applications.
Witness the Power of the CHASING X
Among the key attractions of this event is the
CHASING X, a high-powered underwater drone newly released in June. Designed for use even in strong currents, it represents the forefront of underwater drone technology. Participants will have the chance to experience this powerful device firsthand in the actual marine environment, making it an unparalleled opportunity for both learning and exploration.
Experience the PIPE TREKKER
Additionally, Space One will showcase the
PIPE TREKKER, a highly regarded pipeline inspection crawler manufactured by DeepTrekker, a veteran in the underwater drone market. Built with both robustness and simplicity in mind, the PIPE TREKKER is capable of navigating through harsh environments while maintaining high performance. Visitors can engage directly with this advanced crawler, providing a hands-on understanding of its features and functionalities.
Revolutionary New Add-Ons to be Revealed
During the experience, Space One will unveil newly developed accessories for both the CHASING X and PIPE TREKKER that have never been shown in Japan before. Notably, the
UScanner, a high-precision underwater 3D scanner, can be attached to the underwater drone. It displays point clouds in real-time and generates accurate 3D models from scanning data, paving the way for advanced underwater analysis.
Overcoming Adverse Conditions with TRACKS
Participants will also get to see the
TRACKS, a caterpillar track system for the PIPE TREKKER. This innovative feature allows the crawler to effortlessly traverse muddy, sandy, and rocky environments often found in pipelines, demonstrating its durability and functionality in challenging circumstances.
Additional Features and Technologies
Moreover, attendees will be introduced to other unique equipment options, such as the
OmniScan, which allows for extensive underwater search capabilities. This diverse range of technologies will not only enhance your understanding but also inspire potential applications in various sectors.
