Odyssea: amphibious and modular ROV for maritime hull cleaning<\/h2>\r\n

Project Motivation<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n

The maritime industry faces a century-old problem with marine fouling which causes ships to slow down by causing drag on the ship hull. This causes ships to burn more fuel (and money) and emit even more greenhouse gases.<\/p>\r\n

Design Solution<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n

Our technology, Odyssea, uses a dual propulsion technique to control the amount of fluid passing through to navigate better along the sides and the bottom of a ship hull to clean marine fouling.<\/p>\r\n

Our beachhead market is Singapore’s ship owners and operators, who have to borne the cost of additional fuel wastages.<\/p>\r\n
