dotOcean
dotOcean builds AYB (Automate Your Boat), a cloud-robotics autonomy stack that turns crewed or new-build vessels into autonomous/uncrewed surface vessels (USVs). The software provides COLREGs-compliant collision avoidance, autonomous navigation and mission control, plus multi-sensor data fusion combining radar, AIS, cameras and environmental data into a shared situational-awareness picture (VISOR/Seacurity). It is a SaaS/software platform sold to run on OEM or existing hulls rather than a vessel manufacturer.
