Kraken Robotics
Designs and sells subsea sensors, sonar, batteries, and AUV-related systems for military and commercial underwater applications.
Kraken Robotics, a marine technology company, transforms subsea intelligence through advanced 3D imaging sensors, power solutions, and robotic systems. Its business centers on building and supplying underwater sensing and survey technologies that help clients work in difficult ocean environments. It brings together a broad set of integrated subsea solutions covering sonar, navigation, positioning, imaging, power, communications, monitoring, and data analytics. Customers use those systems to collect actionable information about the underwater world and to support safer, more efficient, and more sustainable operations. The company serves defence, offshore energy, and ocean science or marine research markets. Within those sectors its technologies go to work on mine countermeasures, port and harbour security, critical underwater infrastructure inspection, route survey, offshore energy and subsea infrastructure inspection, seabed mapping and imaging, unexploded ordnance survey, underwater archaeology, ecosystem research, oceanographic survey, and environmental monitoring. Kraken partners closely with clients to provide high quality data and endurance solutions, so its work covers both equipment and support for mission execution. Its product line holds synthetic aperture sonar systems and subsea batteries, while its service offerings extend to LiDAR solutions, sub-bottom imaging, acoustic coring, and towed synthetic aperture sonar survey work. The sonar products serve high-resolution imaging and bathymetric mapping, and the KATFISH system works as a high-speed, actively stabilized towfish that can increase area coverage rates. SeaPower, a pressure-tolerant subsea lithium-ion battery system, comes in modular and scalable architectures for different vehicle sizes and mission profiles. Kraken acquired the Covelya Group, bringing Sonardyne, EIVA, Forcys, Voyis, and Chelsea Technologies together into a wider technology platform across underwater sensing and robotics. What distinguishes the company comes from its combination of high-resolution sensing, pressure-tolerant power systems, and robotic systems within integrated subsea solutions. Its emphasis falls on simultaneous imaging and bathymetric mapping, real-time processing, modularity, and endurance in challenging underwater settings. The business works not only as a seller of equipment but as a provider of survey and data-acquisition services that support decision-making about ocean safety, infrastructure, and geology.
