Blue Atlas Robotics
Blue Atlas Robotics builds Sentinus, a self-steering underwater inspection robot for ship hulls, ports and submerged structures. An AI-powered autopilot holds constant stand-off distance from the target surface and tracks it in a single sweep, so a 100-meter vessel or harbor wall can be scanned in under an hour even in poor visibility. Eight onboard cameras feed photogrammetry pipelines that produce measurable 3D models and point clouds of underwater assets. Customers and partners include Nordic surveyor LE34 (supplier agreement) and Dutch inspection provider oQuay, which added Sentinus to its inspection fleet; backers include KMD Ventures and Esben Ostergaard's REInvest Robotics.
