The American Bureau of Shipping issued the first-ever classification for a commercial autonomous, uncrewed vehicle to Saildrone for the 10-meter Voyager.

Saildrone has deployed a vehicle with a specially designed wing to chase hurricane-strength winter storms in the North Pacific.

A saildrone is a sailboat-like uncrewed vehicle designed to provide cost-effective solutions for in situ data collection in the most remote regions of the ocean and in the harshest conditions.

Waves play a critical role in the health of the world ocean ecosystem.

Saildrone is using a specially built camera system and advanced acoustic technology combined with machine learning to identify activity at sea.

Week 1: A fleet of six saildrones was launched from Honolulu to demonstrate how artificial intelligence and machine learning could be used to support the US Coast Guard mission.

Week 3: We spoke to USCG Commander D. Blair Sweigart about the Coast Guard’s mission, how autonomy could improve mission performance, and Saildrone’s demonstration of MDA capabilities in Hawaii.

Sulmara Subsea has ordered 10 Saildrone Voyagers to bring low-carbon USV-based survey and inspection to the global offshore energy sector.

Presented by the Blue Marine Foundation and BOAT International, the Ocean Awards recognize groups and individuals making significant contributions to ocean conservation.

During the 2019 Antarctic Circumnavigation, Saildrone is taking critical measurements of Earth’s only circumpolar current.
