Teledyne Participates in 2026 SeaSEC Challenge Weeks: DATA2SEA
the SeaSEC Challenge Weeks, “DATA2SEA” (SCWD2S), an advanced maritime security exercise focused on real-time multi-sensor data integration for the protection of critical underwater infrastructure (CUI). In collaboration with the German Navy and hosted by the Rostock Institute for Ocean Technologies, this year’s DATA2SEA program brings together a range of sensing technologies in realistic operational conditions to explore how real-time data integration can enhance maritime security operations. The exercise shifts the focus beyond individual stand-alone system performance to the integratio
Cellula Robotics Joins Canadian Technology Accelerators UK Maritime Defense Program
Cellula Robotics has been selected to participate in the Maritime Defence and Security Applications of Ocean Technologies program in the United Kingdom through the Canadian Technology Accelerators (CTA) initiative.Led by the High Commission of Canada in the United Kingdom and delivered in collaboration with BMNT, the program supports Canadian companies developing advanced ocean technologies that align with shared Canada–UK maritime defense priorities.As maritime security challenges evolve, structured collaboration between allied nations and industry partners is increasingly important. The CTA
MRECo Develops Two Marine Energy Test Sites in Massachusetts
of New England (MRECo) is developing and improving two ocean testing sites in Massachusetts: the Bourne Tidal Test Site (BTTS) in the Cape Cod Canal and the Cuttyhunk Test Range (CTR) off Cuttyhunk Island.Together, these sites give innovators a safe, affordable, and permitted way to deploy new ocean technologies in the water, bridging the gap between lab experiments and real-world use.The Bourne Tidal Test Site, located in the Cape Cod Canal, is a platform built specifically for testing tidal energy devices and marine sensors in fast-moving water. The site allows engineers and researchers to see how
Robosys Automation Aims to Streamline Offshore Wind Environmental Data Collection
various aspects such as bird monitoring and sea conditions. Data is collected manually and analyzed after it reaches shore, significantly slowing down the decision-making process.Project ORACLES will address this by leveraging advanced marine robotics, advanced autonomous systems, and other digital ocean technologies, a move expected to help the industry meet the UK’s target of 60GW of offshore wind capacity by 2030.The project consortium includes ACUAOcean, MSEIS, Plymouth Marine Laboratories, and the Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult.Funding for Project ORACLES was secured through the UK Research
Lander Lab: Chilean Ocean Lander Data Acquisition and Control System
IntroductionThere are enormous technological challenges in accessing and sampling hadal depths, but the recent surge in the development of deep-ocean technologies ranging from ocean landers, remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), and human-occupied vehicles (HOVs) has allowed the oceanography of trenches to be addressed.Ocean landers are a cost-effective class of autonomous unmanned underwater vehicle that possess a unique capacity for exceptionally quiet, extended stays on the seafloor, studying benthic communities and environments by in-situ sensing and sampling. Multiple landers can be used to survey
Nauticus Robotics, AOS Join Forces for Offshore Robotics
new alliance and look forward to working with AOS and its affiliates to advance the ongoing trial, adoption, and integration of scalable autonomous and remote solutions into new and improved ways of working in offshore waters.“Our missions are perfectly aligned and seek to leverage the latest ocean technologies to challenge industry convention and bring about meaningful change to subsea asset management practices, from surface to seabed,” said John Gibson, President and CEO of Nauticus Robotics."We are delighted to team up with Nauticus Robotics to bring new ideas and opportunities to market
