Autonomously Mapping the Seafloor – Robohub

Anthony DiMare and Charles Chiau deep dive into how Bedrock Ocean is innovating on the planet of Marine Surveys. At Bedrock Ocean, they’re growing an Autonomous Underwater Automobile (AUV) that is ready to map the seafloor autonomously and at a excessive decision. They’re additionally growing an information platform to entry, course of, and visualize information captured from different firms on the seafloor.

Bedrock Ocean is fixing two issues within the trade of Marine Surveying.
1. The overwhelming majority of the seafloor is totally unmapped
2. The information that’s captured from the seafloor just isn’t standardized or centralized.

Seafloor information carried out by two totally different firms with the identical or totally different {hardware} to seize the information can differ considerably within the calculated seafloor profile

Anthony DiMare
Anthony beforehand based Nautilus Labs, a number one maritime expertise firm advancing the effectivity of ocean commerce by way of synthetic intelligence. Whereas at Nautilus, Anthony helped world firms resolve challenges with distributed, siloed maritime information programs and constructed the early staff that launched Nautilus Platform into massive publicly listed delivery firms.

Charles Chiau
Charles, Bedrock’s CTO, was beforehand at SpaceX the place he helped design the avionics programs for Crew Dragon. He additionally was a system integration engineer at Dependable Robotics engaged on their autonomous aviation system and was the CTO of DeepFlight the place he labored on manned submersibles together with ones for Tom Perkins, Richard Branson, and Steve Fossett.
