The engineering expertise behind your custom robot
We engineer mission-critical underwater robotic systems for clients in offshore energy, marine science, defense, and aquaculture. Our approach blends advanced robotics engineering design with real-world operational constraints-delivering solutions that perform reliably at depths beyond 3,000 meters.
Applications that demand precision
From pipeline integrity surveys in the Gulf of Mexico to deep-sea specimen collection for EU marine institutes, our robotic underwater exploration design adapts to your environment-not the other way around.
- Offshore Energy: Reduce inspection downtime with corrosion-resistant, high-mobility platforms
- Marine Research: Non-invasive sampling with force-sensitive manipulators
- Defense & Security: Covert harbor monitoring with low-acoustic signature systems
- Aquaculture: Automated net inspection using modular sensor arrays
Our engineering approach
Every project follows a transparent, phase-gated workflow:
- Requirements & Risk assessment - including regulatory alignment (CE, FCC, JIS)
- Concept & Simulation - using validated robot design calculations for hydrodynamics and structural loads
- Prototype Validation - pressure, thruster, and manipulation testing in controlled environments
- Certification & Delivery - full documentation, training, and warranty support
Core technical capabilities
We specialize in integrated subsystems that work as one cohesive platform:
Global compliance & Trust
We design to international standards:
- EU: CE marking under Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, RoHS/REACH compliance, repairable-by-design principles
- USA: ITAR/EAR-aware development, FCC Part 15, ASME PVHO-1 for pressure vessels
- Asia: Compatibility with JIS B 8421 (Japan), KC certification (Korea), and seamless integration with regional marine sensor ecosystems
All intellectual property is assigned to you upon project completion. We operate under mutual NDAs and provide a 12-month warranty on mechanical and electrical subsystems.
Flexible delivery models
Choose what fits your team and budget:
- Design-only: Full robot cad design packages (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, CATIA V5) with simulation reports
- Prototype: 3D-printed or CNC-machined proof-of-concept with functional testing
- Turnkey system: Fully assembled, calibrated, and certified robot ready for deployment
- Licensing: For OEMs integrating our robotic joint design or control algorithms
Why global teams partner with us
Unlike generalist firms, we focus exclusively on mechanical robotics design for extreme aquatic environments. Our robotic load-bearing design and robotic compliance mechanism design have been validated in real-world deployments-from Norwegian fjords to Singaporean ports.
We provide full technical documentation in English, Japanese, or Korean, including FMEA, material certifications, and integration protocols-ensuring smooth adoption by your engineering team.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you handle export compliance for defense-related projects?
Yes. We maintain ITAR/EAR compliance protocols and can structure projects to meet U.S. Department of State or EU dual-use regulations.
Can you integrate with our existing sensor suite?
Absolutely. Our connection design robot philosophy prioritizes open interfaces (RS485, CAN bus, Ethernet) and mechanical compatibility with standard marine housings.
What’s your typical timeline?
A complete custom robot design takes 10-16 weeks. Complex systems with autonomous navigation may require 5-7 months. We deliver phased milestones for budget and risk control.
