Aquanaut represents the next generation of subsea robotics integrating eight independent thrusters to precisely propel and position a hull design to maximize efficiency and speed high-resolution data collection, and autonomous fully electric manipulation comparable to traditional ROV operations. Product Portfolio Aquanaut Autonomous Vehicles Nauticus Robotics has three autonomous vehicles. One vehicle is currently operational, a second vehicle is undergoing certification for operations and the third vehicle is still to be assembled. Aquanaut has demonstrated superior capabilities in safety assurance, operational efficiency, asset integrity, and regulatory compliance through its ability to collect high-resolution subsea data. Aquanaut is engineered to operate to a depth of 3000 meters. ToolKITT Software Suite ToolKITT is a sophisticated software platform that governs Nauticus’ suite of robotic products. It enables robots to perceive their environment
