Marine systems

Ocean super productivity, 0–10,000 m

Surface and subsea robots engineered for a 10,000-hour service life — built on six core systems that keep working where the ocean pushes back.

Advanced power

Drivetrain engineering that delivers 3x speed and 25x component lifespan compared with conventional subsea propulsion.

Fluid control

Station-keeping and manoeuvring that holds steady in 3-knot currents, so missions finish in the conditions they started in.

High-fidelity sensing

Twice the clarity and range in murky water, turning zero-visibility inspections into usable engineering data.

Relative navigation

Precise positioning relative to hulls, structures and moving vessels — not just a point on a chart.

Waterproof sealing

Sealing systems proven to 10,000 m keep electronics dry from harbour depth to full-ocean trench.

Dynamic deployment

Launch and recovery streamlined to one-tenth the setup time, so the robot is working while others are still rigging.

Subsea & surface hybrid

One hull, six degrees of freedom

A twin-thruster hybrid platform that holds station against current, tracks a moving hull at close range, and swaps between inspection and hull-cleaning attachments on the same chassis.

Orion Robotics hull-cleaning robot removing biofouling from a vessel

Biofouling elimination

Clean hulls, measurable fuel savings

Hull-cleaning robots with 720° movement work vessels from 100 to 300,000+ tons — restoring smooth hulls without dry-docking the ship.

  • 720° movement. Full-freedom locomotion follows every curve of the hull, from flat plate to bulbous bow.
  • 10–20% direct fuel savings. A clean hull cuts drag — and the fuel bill — on every voyage that follows.
  • Compliance reporting built in. Documentation aligned to frameworks such as the NZ CRMS comes standard with every clean.

Put the marine fleet to work

Whether it's subsea inspection or hull cleaning, tell us the vessel and depth and we'll scope the platform.
