Create Free AccountKraken Robotics Inc. has successfully demonstrated the integration of its KATFISH towed sonar and autonomous launch and recovery system (LARS) with SEFINE Shipyard's RD-22 unmanned surface vessel (USV). The technical demonstration took place during the first quarter of 2026 off the coast of Istanbul, Turkey. This project was conducted in coordination with SEFINE’s Strategic Unmanned Systems Research Center (SISAM), highlighting a significant international collaboration. The primary objective was to showcase the interoperability of Kraken’s advanced subsea technology with third-party unmanned platforms for maritime defense and survey applications. This successful validation of technical compatibility is expected to expand Kraken's potential market reach and could lead to future procurement contracts. The achievement reinforces the company's position as a leader in high-resolution subsea imaging and autonomous maritime systems.
