Greensea Demonstrates Untethered ROV Operation at Sea
;, states Ben Kinnaman, Greensea’s CEO. “In this concept, our reach into the ocean is infinite and presence persistent. This demonstration shows that it is possible, affordable, and enabling."In addition to VideoRay being the vehicle partner in this test, Greenea partnered with SeeByte, Inc. for the Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) on OPENSEA Edge, and OceanComm, Inc. for the acoustic modem solution.Greensea continues to develop OPENSEA Edge for both defense and commercial use, and will be demonstrating the latest developments along with Safe C2 at Ocean Business in the UK,
Greensea Launches OPENSEA Edge
and available processing space, developers can install their own autonomy and perception-handling software, including AI/ML libraries.Through collaboration with other subsea technology leaders, OPENSEA Edge has been able to deliver a complete solution. One example is Greensea's collaboration with Seebyte, a specialist in Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) technology. The ATR system uses fast, machine learning techniques to detect and classify targets from forward looking sonar data. Any ROV equipped with OPENSEA Edge can now identify targets, based on an extensive and growing internal library of
Greensea, SeeByte Collaboration Fosters Ocean Robotics Innovation
Greensea Systems, creator of the open architecture platform OPENSEA, and SeeByte, with their mission-level autonomy system Neptune and embedded Automatic Target Recognition (ATR), have continued their collaboration to provide a comprehensive solution for ocean robotics operators, from vehicle platform to operation center.The two companies are working together to provide advanced autonomy and sensor processing solutions that complement each other and push the cutting-edge of underwater robotics.“I have had a long history with Greensea Systems. First, I was a customer of theirs at SeaBotix. Then I
SeeByte Selected to Develop Future Crewed-uncrewed Teaming Concept
SeeByte, developer of smart software solutions for uncrewed maritime systems, reports it been selected by the U.K. Ministry of Defense’s Defense and Security Accelerator (DASA) to design and develop a proof-of-concept solution to improve communication and understanding between operators and uncrewed maritime systems.The new concept will include tailoring the volume and content of messages received and predicting vehicles’ actions between communication updates, SeeByte said. The engine will present any variation detected between the predicted and actual actions of the vehicle executed
'True ROV Autonomy for EOD Robotics' - Greensea Systems, Seebyte Team Up
Greensea Systems and Seebyte, two companies specializing in ROV software, have partnered up, citing growing demand for "true ROV autonomy within the field of maritime Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) robotics."Greensea Systems is the creator of the open architecture platform OPENSEA, and SeeByte specializes in autonomy and automatic target recognition (ATR)."The two companies have previously operated as competitors, both fielding software for ROVs, but recently recognized that to satisfy the emerging needs of key maritime robotics consumers such as the US Navy, pooling intellect and

Sonardyne, SeeByte Advance UMS Navigation and Autonomy
Sonardyne and SeeByte won a UK Defense Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) funding to enhance and extend the future operational capability of autonomous and remotely operated systems in battlespace domains.The collaboration is the phase two of the UK’s Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA)’s Autonomy in Challenging Environments competition and builds on the work both organizations undertook in Phase 1.Sonardyne underwater positioning system will be teamed with SeeByte’s adaptive, communication-aware, robotic behavior developed for its autonomy system Neptune to allow the UMS
What's In Store for 2021? More Remote, More Data, More Autonomy
and industrialization as key directions of travel for the subsea industry.The future is fluidThere’s a lot going on – the future is fluid, says Ling. Incumbents are being forced to compete with new entrants. University spinouts and new start-ups have or are entering the market, think Seebyte and Hydromea). There’s also room for players from other industries (e.g. Kawasaki) to disrupt the market with innovative technology. Honuworx is one of those. It’s developing solutions for the launch, recovery, and remote operation of underwater vehicles that removes the requirement
