If you dream of exploring remote worlds using advanced robotic technologies, we’ll take you there.
Operating on oceans around the world from Victoria BC, Open Ocean Robotics is a rapidly growing startup transforming how we understand our oceans through better data. We are leaders in solar-powered autonomous boats, also called uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs), that voyage inhospitable ocean environments for -extended missions. Combined with advanced sensors and data analytics and producing no greenhouse gases or risk of oil spills, we offer a safer, more effective and affordable way of gaining ocean insights.
