Fugro has successfully tested the DOT-NM Autosampler, a new device developed by Dartmouth Ocean Technologies Inc. (DOT) and NatureMetrics. The trial took place in the marina directly outside of the Fugro office in Portchester, UK. This advanced technology rapidly generates biodiversity assessments by collecting environmental DNA (eDNA) samples autonomously, reducing project time and costs.

Maritime Tactical Systems (MARTAC), an innovator in Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs), along with Sealartec, an innovator in Autonomous Launch & Recovery Systems (ALARS), is proud to unveil a fully Autonomous Launch & Recovery System, whereby MARTAC’s MANTAS T8 (2.5 m) and T12 (3.6 m) Systems can be autonomously launched and recovered from MARTAC’s Devil Ray T38 (11 m) System. It is widely recognized that the ability to autonomously launch and recover USVs is a critical factor in facilitating swarming missions and harnessing the full potential of unmanned systems in the marine domain. Achieving this in relevant sea conditions with minimal reliance on human intervention, while ensuring speed and repeatability, is essential.
