Nauticus Robotics’ modems pass deepwater tests

Nauticus Robotics (KITT) announced Aquanaut Subnero Pte modem performance results from the deepwater test program announced in August. For the Aquanaut tests conducted last month, the Subnero surface modem was lowered over the side of the vessel to approximately two meters below the sea surface. Test results confirmed the subsea link was maintained continuously between the surface modem and the Subnero modem installed on the Aquanaut vehicle as it submerged from the surface down to 2300 meters. Not only was this test successful for Nauticus and the Aquanaut vehicle, it represents the deepest measured operation of a Subnero modem. Nauticus plans to continue Aquanaut vehicle testing down to its designed operational depth of 3000 meters. It is estimated that the 2300 meter limit currently certified for Aquanaut operations is deep enough to cover 90% of the oil and gas offshore fields worldwide.
