ASL Environmental Sciences has announced a new collaboration with Open Ocean Robotics, as part of the Air-Sea Ocean Monitoring System (ASOMS) project, partially funded by Canada’s Ocean Supercluster. As part of this joint effort, ASL’s Aco…


Open Ocean Robotics
Open Ocean Robotics builds solar-powered autonomous surface vessels for persistent ocean monitoring. Their USVs collect real-time environmental data including emissions tracking, marine mammal detection, and weather monitoring — operating for months without human intervention.
