EXPERIENCE THE FUTURE OF MARITIME NAVIGATION with dotOcean's Autonomous Navigation System. Engineered for smarter and safer operations, our cutting-edge software enables vessels to autonomously navigate in ports, coastal regions and open seas with precision to execute your mission.
Our Automate Your Boat system collects environmental data (weather, GIS, and echosounder) and performs object detection using radar, EO/IR cameras, LiDAR, AIS, and VTS data. Combined with vessel related information such as GNSS, compass, IMU, and health status, this sensor fusion software ensures comprehensive data integration, enabling informed decision-making.
Our decision-making software ensures safe and efficient mission execution by leveraging data from all integrated sensors. By analyzing real-time data, the vessel can predict movements of nearby objects, plan optimal routes, and react proactively to changing conditions, ensuring both safety and operational effectiveness whilst performing its duty.
Advanced Human Machine Interfaces enable flexible vessel control. Operators can steer manually via joystick, tablet or laptop (VLOS - visual line of sight) or plan mission patterns and supervise the execution remotely from a control room (BVLOS - Behind visual line of sight), ensuring safe and efficient navigation.
dotOcean is excited for it’s collaboration with the Belgian Navy and the Royal Military Academy on the groundbreaking Triple Helix research project.
The Marsur created by dotOcean and RMA is an autonomous maritime vessel designed to enable operations with multiple heterogeneous unmanned maritime assets. Its capabilities include autonomous navigation, remote control, and coordination with other unmanned vehicles. The Marsur is equipped with advanced sensors, communication systems, and onboard processing capabilities, allowing it to operate effectively in various maritime environments.
dotOcean collaborates with GEOxyz to realize this achievement
It can navigate shallow waters, collect data from both the seafloor and water column. Its stable platform ensures high-quality data collection for various applications such as marine research, environmental monitoring, and hydro-graphic surveying. Overall, it autonomously conducts surveys, enhancing safety, affordability and data quality in marine operations.
Port of Antwerp-Bruges Deploys USV Echodrone for Sounding Mission.
The Echodrone is an innovative unmanned surface vessel designed for survey operations in ports. Its primary function is to conduct regular depth measurements in areas that are typically challenging for manned vessels to access. Equipped with advanced sensors and navigation systems, the Echodrone autonomously navigates and collects precise depth data, providing valuable information for port management and maintenance.
Marine contractor builds own vessel.
A marine contractor build their own vessel according to their requirements. dotOcean helped choosing motors and GPS.
By adding the AYB unit, this marine contractor is now able to execute his own surveys and get real-time depth maps on his tablet. This greatly reduced their operational costs per construction site.

The Marine Litter Hunter is a fully autonomous vessel designed to transport litter from a collection trap to the shore. It features autonomous docking capabilities and relies on situational awareness data from camera's and radars installed on a bridge, this data is validated through the onboard sensors.
Introducing the Calypso – an inflatable, fully autonomous surface vehicle designed for advanced hydrographic and environmental surveys. Whether you're conducting coastal mapping, water quality assessments, or underwater inspections, the Calypso adapts to your needs with its versatile sensor integration capabilities.
Equipped with our Cloud Link subscription, the Calypso offers seamless auto-navigation, real-time data visualization, and secure cloud storage. Its compact and portable design makes it easy to deploy, while its autonomous features ensure precision and efficiency in every survey.
The dotOcean Cloud enables remote BVLOS operation of AYB-enabled USVs with adaptive live video streaming, ensuring continuous visuals even over low bandwidth communication channels. It highlights detected objects using augmented reality and streams onboard camera, radar and LIDAR data. A situational awareness screen integrates AIS targets, radar objects and raw radar overlays on nautical charts. Additional features include remote vessel health monitoring, historical data access and fleet management.
Our AYB app is the ultimate tool for remotely operating and monitoring our autonomous vessels. With a user-friendly interface, the app allows you to control the boats’ movements in real time, adjust their routes and oversee their operations online from anywhere.
Beyond control, the AYB app collects and visualizes essential data, including navigation metrics, environmental conditions and operational performance.
Whether you're managing a fleet or monitoring a single vessel, the AYB app combines convenience, precision and actionable insights to enhance maritime operations.
The AYB app can either be installed on an Android tablet or can be run as a web app on a laptop connected to the internet (or a local cloud).
