FIFISH W6 - Inspection Package
QYSEAThe FIFISH W6 (and its NAVI variant) is an industrial-grade ROV manufactured by QYSEA Technology, rated to 350 m depth, weighing ~23.4 kg, and equipped with dual 4K UHD cameras, 12,000-lumen LEDs, a 6 Q-motor propulsion system, and a modular tool interface. It is designed for professional underwater inspection tasks including pipeline, ship hull, offshore infrastructure, and aquaculture applications. The system features a suite of pilot-assistance autonomy functions — station lock, altitude lock, distance lock, collision avoidance, and inertial navigation with one-click return — but all inspection tasks are fundamentally performed by a human pilot operating the ROV via tether and remote controller. Independent academic research cited in the facts uses the FIFISH W6 platform as a base for experimental autonomous frameworks (AquaChat LLM, SLAM-based inspection), but these are research prototypes not representative of the commercial product's operational autonomy.

Evidence-graded claims from the QYSEA deep report
QYSEA's post-sale warranty requires shipping units back to China, and user support has been described as slow and marginal.
An independent Reddit ROV community thread [15] directly reports China-return warranty requirements and slow/marginal support as user experiences, constituting third-party evidence; however, the sample size is limited and may not reflect all customer experiences.

QYSEA ROVs cover an operational depth range of 0–500 meters across the product lineup, with individual models varying (e.g., V6 PLUS at 150m).
Depth ratings are stated on official and third-party commerce pages [5][6][7][8] but have not been independently verified through third-party testing or regulatory certification documented in the dossier.
from QYSEA deep report →QYSEA's sensor and tool suite includes 4K high-frame-rate cameras, 3D laser measurement, DVL, sonar, ultrasonic testing (UT), sampling tools, and 2D/3D seafloor mapping.
These capabilities are described across official and commerce sources [1][5][6][8] for various models, but no independent benchmark, field test report, or customer validation of measurement accuracy or reliability appears in the dossier.
from QYSEA deep report →QYSEA demonstrated 5G wireless long-distance ROV control capability.
The 5G control capability is reported solely via a company news announcement [14] with no independent journalist, regulator, or customer corroboration of the demonstration's scope, range, or operational readiness.
from QYSEA deep report →QYSEA holds 150 global patents.
The 150-patent figure is self-reported via official/commerce sources [1][9] with no independent patent database verification, regulatory filing, or third-party audit cited in the dossier.
