Surfbee Queen 2.2

On Water Modular Missions Made Easy

You know how It can be extremely difficult to carry out a marine survey with equipment that is expensive, not easily carried or operated, Well, what we did was develop a marine survey robot that is low cost and can be backpacked and transported anywhere in the world. In fact, our unmanned surface vessels Firetail autopilot was a winner of the Pacific Humanitarian Challenge in 2016 awarded by the Australian Government.
