Description

uWare Robotics is a Belgian dual-use startup that builds autonomous underwater solutions so that any blue industry can have the data necessary for sustainable operations. 

Port activities and offshore renewable energy are crucial to our sustainable future. They are skyrocketing and need underwater data to manage their activities and protect their assets. Yet, current solutions for underwater data are cumbersome, dangerous and expensive.

uWare’s end-to-end solution of fully autonomous underwater drones and accompanying AI-based data processing makes underwater data safe, efficient and affordable. 

Products & Services

uWare’s highly mobile, cost-effective AUV, the uOne, makes underwater data collection easy. Anyone can program a mission in minutes and launch the autonomous system.

Additionally, our platform processes the data into high-resolution maps, elevation models and/or digital twins, enabling AI-based analysis for detailed assessment of ecosystem health and/or infrastructure inspection. 

Innovative Aspects & Advantages

The uOne AUV significantly enhances the efficiency of monitoring processes compared to traditional methods currently in use. It autonomously navigates and accurately locates itself underwater, covering over 1000m² in high detail in about an hour, depending on weather and battery life. It surpasses the capabilities of divers and ROVs in range and speed. 

The integrated approach with the uOne and accompanying data platform streamlines monitoring and provides unparalleled depth in underwater asset analysis, be it for environmental, industrial or security purposes.
