The EverClean IQ robot can be used by marine surveyors and shipyards as part of the cloud service of the same name.

“EverClean IQ has evolved from the EverClean service-reporting tool into a complete hull inspection and change-detection tool,” said Rob Howard, CGO of Greensea IQ.

“This new robot makes collecting comprehensive data more efficient and faster than current methods. EverClean IQ can now collect new data that can then be combined with data from our EverClean services or the customer’s own data for comprehensive hull inspection.”

The inspection data collected on EverClean IQ can create coverage maps detailing cleaned sections, fouling ratings, images and high-quality video of points of interest, including niche areas such as sea chest or inside tunnel thrusters, and ultrasonic inspections of hull-plate thickness to provide key insights for making decisions on hull repairs, monitoring changes and planning predictive maintenance.

This data is then used to show the relationship between ship performance and hull condition, fouling rates, coatings performance, corrosion and hull thickness, and any hull deformation or damage.
