Our Mission We are creating the future of marine robotics for the Blue Economy. Our WAM-V® is a technological leap forward in ASVs (Autonomous Surface Vessels) with proven effectiveness to support multiple marine industries. WAM-Vs increase operational capabilities, decrease risk, lower cost, save time and can be disassembled for economical shipment anywhere in the world. Our Technology The Wave Adaptive Modular Vessel (WAM-V) is an innovative class of watercraft using unique technology that radically improves seagoing capabilities. The articulating system uses springs, shocks and ball joints to minimize structural loading. The result is an ultra-light vessel that can perform in sea conditions where an ordinary boat of similar size could no longer operate. Our Capabilities ● Hydrography ● Remote Observation ● Systems Delivery ● Oceanography ● Marine Salvage ● Dredging Surveys ● Habitat Study ● Disaster Response ● Marine Infrastructure Inspections About Us Marine Advanced Robotics, Inc. (FKA Marine Advanced Research, Inc.) was founded in 2004 by a small group of Silicon Valley innovators. In 2007, the 100 ft (30 m) Proteus was launched in the San Francisco Bay, introducing the WAM-V (Wave Adaptive Modular Vessel) to the world. For the past decade, we have continued to design, manufacture, and refine the WAM-V technology. WAM-Vs currently operate in 10 countries and range in size from 2.5 m to 30 m in length.
