Fully integrated – ready to use
The Nucleus 1000 packages everything an ROV needs for stable navigation – in a single unit measuring 90 mm in diameter and under 700 grams.
- DVL (Doppler Velocity Log) – precise velocity measurement
- AHRS – orientation (pitch, roll, heading)
- Altimeter – 0.10–60 m above seabed
- Pressure and temperature sensor – integrated depth measurement
- INS – autonomous position estimation
- Scalable accuracy – standard and export-controlled versions available
Available in two depth variants – see details below.
The right housing for your mission
The Nucleus 1000 comes in two housings: 300 m for shallower water and 1000 m for greater depths. The sensor package and performance are identical – choose based on your operational depth.
- 300 m version: 42 mm height, 0.30 kg in water – for inspection in shallower waters
- 1000 m version: 47 mm height, 0.42 kg in water – reinforced housing for greater depths
- Same diameter (90 mm) and same sensor package on both versions

Nucleus 1000 on Oceanus Pro and Ultimate
Nortek and MarineNav have developed a direct integration of the Nucleus 1000 into the Oceanus series. This enables autonomous capabilities that previously required much larger and more expensive ROV systems – without complex third-party integration.
Station Keeping
The ROV holds position steadily even in current and swell. The pilot can focus on camera work and inspection without manually compensating for drift.
Precise depth and altitude data
Built-in pressure sensor and altimeter deliver continuous real-time measurements of depth and altitude above the seabed. This forms the foundation for stable inspections along the bottom and along structures.
Foundation for advanced navigation
With optional INS firmware, the Nucleus 1000 delivers positioning data that can be used for extended navigation functions. Get in touch for a walkthrough of what is available for your configuration.
