ecosub.ukAbout company
ecoSUB Robotics Limited is a company spun out of Planet Ocean Limited, a UK based marine science technology specialist, following extensive collaboration with the Marine Autonomous Robotics Systems (MARS) group at National Oceanography Centre (NOC), UK. ecoSUB Robotics Limited's engineering and development team are based in the Marine Robotics Innovation Centre in the NOC, Southampton, UK, benefiting from the facilities and expertise located within hub of UK marine autonomous systems development. The ecoSUB program began with an Innovate UK and DSTL funded project which included the development of the ecoSUBu for autonomous launch and recovery via an unmanned surface vehicle. Early stakeholder engagement indicated a strong interest in the AUV concept and a larger vehicle, ecoSUBm, was quickly conceived to meet the emerging needs of the oil & gas industry.
