Kraken Robotics Inc. showcased its Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) technology at the annual REPMUS exercise in Portugal, with a record number of participants utilizing the technology for maritime security operations, including mine countermeasures and critical underwater infrastructure inspections. The use of Kraken SAS at REPMUS doubled this year compared to the previous year, with ten teams utilizing Kraken systems. The systems captured data with a resolution of 3 cm x 3 cm, making mine-like objects and underwater cables with a diameter as small as 5 cm visible. The exercise involved over 30 nations, 2000 participants, and 250 autonomous units to test interoperability in realistic naval environments.
Kraken Robotics, known for its revolutionary underwater exploration technology, has been supporting REPMUS for the fourth consecutive year. The company’s SAS technology was integrated into four different classes of Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs), showcasing the interoperability between platforms, nations, and mission objectives in the underwater domain. Kraken’s systems provide the best resolution in their class, delivering crucial insights on ocean safety, infrastructure, and geology. The company’s headquarters are in Canada, with branches across North America, South America, and Europe, serving customers in over 30 countries globally.
