Saronic Technologies develops Autonomous Surface Vessels (ASVs) that improve the capabilities of naval and maritime forces. These vessels use adaptive path planning and passive sensors, along with advanced algorithms and edge computing, to effectively identify and track targets. They are designed to operate in challenging environments, utilizing resilient multichannel communications to support both manned and unmanned operations. Saronic Technologies focuses on military and defense clients, aiming to enhance situational awareness, extend operational reach, and improve survivability during maritime missions. Unlike competitors, Saronic's ASVs can integrate with existing operational strategies or support new maritime tactics. The company's goal is to provide effective solutions that meet specific mission needs through the sale of ASVs and related customization services.
