Sea Machines Robotics’ Post

Introducing SELKIE, the new USV from Sea Machines Robotics. Powered by the SM300 Autonomous Command and Control system, SELKIE combines our robust autonomous system on the most optimal platform, so you can experience and utilize autonomy hassle-free.   SELKIE is... 💪 Rugged 💪 Constructed from HDPE, SELKIE’s hull is resilient to impact. Capable of up to Sea State 5 Integrated cargo bay for long-range logistics, even in challenging conditions.   🛡 Reliable 🛡 The SM300 Autonomous Command and Control provides robust autonomous capabilities that has over 20,000 hours of on-water testing and client use time. ✅ Easy to Use ✅ We make autonomy accessible through an ENC-based User Interface, simply click and drag to set waypoints, and you’re off! As its shapeshifting mythological namesake, SELKIE excels as a conventionally piloted #boat or in her primary format as an #AutonomousVessel, commanded from anywhere  === ⚠ Discover SELKIE for #HydrographicSurvey, #SAR, and more now: https://lnkd.in/gna3-SP9 #SMRSELKIE #AutonomousVessel #MaritimeIndustry #MaritimeTech #Boston

🚢 Autonomous Vessels + Starlink = Faster Hydrographic Survey Results 🌐 Traditional hydrographic survey operations require lengthy deployment times and substantial lead times for transferring and processing data as data collected during the survey is typically stored on-board the vessel, meaning it can't be analyzed until the vessel returns to port. By equipping autonomous hydrographic survey vessels with Starlink, surveyors can: 💡 Deploy faster and more efficiently. 💡 Transmit data back to HQ in real-time as it is recorded. 💡 Accelerate the data analysis and reporting process, crucial for time-sensitive operations. Survey, send, simple.

+2 for Team Sea Machines! 🥂 Please join us in welcoming Bakul Khanna and Vinay Medabalimi to the SMR crew! 👏   💡 Bakul joins as our Computer Networking and Infrastructure Engineer. With a keen interest and extensive experience in networking protocol #innovation, development, #automation, and operation, she’s a fantastic fit.   Bakul also boasts 12 patents and numerous technical papers and looks forward to tackling technical challenges at Sea Machines. 💡 Vinay is our new DevOps and Integration Engineer. With a background in #robotics, Vinay is set to boost our systems to new heights. An avid hiker ⛰ , he shares glimpses of his adventures on different mountain tops every week. We’re lucky to have these two powerhouses on our team. Drop a big ‘👏’ for Vinay and Bakul in the comments below! #TeamSeaMachines #Welcome #NewHires #Innovation #Engineering 

Benefits of Combining Tethered Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) with Unmanned Survey Vessels (USV) 🌊🚁 No matter the application, the advantages are clear: 👀 Improved ISR productivity: Aerial view on demand provides greater range for maritime domain awareness, with optional live stream via USV network. 💰 Lower Operational Costs: Save on fuel and manpower to cover a broader area for ISR. 🛡️ Enhanced Safety: Reduce exposure to hazardous marine environments for both vessel and drone operators. ⏱️ Extended Operational Hours: Tethered UAS can operate longer with tethered power, and USVs outlast regular human shifts. We've teamed with Hoverfly Technologies to explore the opportunities this powerful combination creates.

Double Trouble! 🌊🚁 Sea Machines is teaming with Hoverfly Technologies to bring you the best of both worlds in our latest blog. Combining Tethered Unmanned Aerial Systems (TeUAS) and Small Unmanned Surface Vehicles (sUSVs) offers unprecedented visibility and operational flexibility. Think: 💡 Simultaneous data gathering from both ocean and air domains 💡 Visibility beyond water level line of sight in remote locations 💡 Efficient operation by a small team of one or two operators Discover all the new use cases made possible by this dynamic duo in our blog. 🔗 Link in comments!   #MaritimeTech #UAV #USV #Innovation #DataCollection 

Today we honor the historic day of #Juneteenth, commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the United States.  Let's celebrate freedom, equality, and unity as we continue the journey towards a more just and inclusive society. #FreedomDay 

Thinking Outside of the Wheelhouse. 🧠 ⚙ ▶ Whether it's cargo obstructing the view or navigating through densely packed ports where #visibility from the wheelhouse is limited, there are many circumstances where #navigation could benefit from a different vantage point. Sure, you could lean extra far out the side window...or you could leave the wheelhouse entirely! 💡 With intuitive and comprehensive controls, the SM200 Wireless Helm Control is your wheelhouse away from the wheelhouse.   Control your vessel from our wearable belt pack from up to 1 km. away, allowing you to choose the best vantage point for the job. Full bridge control, right in the palm of your hand. 🖖

It’s official: Sea Machines has opened our latest office in Gdańsk, #Poland! 🎉 On June 12, Sea Machines European Director Peter Holm and German-Polish Chamber of Industry and Commerce (AHK Polen) representative, Mr. Maciek Pikuliński, announced the establishment of Sea Machines’ newest presence in this #maritime history-rich city. “I would like to thank AHK for their help in a smooth, quick, and efficient setup of our latest European office which gives us a further foothold in this important Maritime region" says Peter Holm. Stay tuned for more updates as we introduce our newest additions to the team! #MaritimeIndustry #NewOffice #USV #SMRSELKIE
