Unleashing Constellations of Rugged Ocean Robots
We provide wide area, persistent ocean monitoring. We do this with constellations of small sensing robots.
Too often, the oceans are Earth's blind spot. They drive our most destructive weather patterns. Our critical infrastructure powering our homes, providing our communications rests in the ocean. As our climate changes, our lack of data on the oceans, the planet's heat engine, introduces greater uncertainty into our future predictions. The need for climate monitoring and oceanic security has never been greater, and we believe wide area, persistent sensing networks are key as the solution.
Solving this requires sensor nodes that are mass-deployable, persistent, and navigable. Persistence means surviving multi-month missions through the worst winter storms. Navigability means reliably going from A→B or holding station. And mass deployment means units must be small, low-cost, and easy to field in swarms.
Oshen is the only company to have solved all three. Our one-metre ocean robots have completed multi-month missions, navigated autonomously at sea, and are the only surface robots in the world to have sailed into, and survived, a Category 5 hurricane. We've deployed across multiple continents, our data is trusted by national governments, and we're only just getting started. Welcome to Oshen.
Data provided by our network
Weather & Climate Data
Live information is relayed on meteorological and oceanographic conditions over satellite. Instead of a single, expensive weather buoy, a 5-strong constellation of Oshen robots can closely orbit an area, relaying data.
Passive Monitoring
'C-Star' robots can be fitted with passive acoustic sensors, infrared and visual cameras. Networks of robots create wide area sensing network to detect marine mammals, illegal fishing and more.
Proven partnerships
We're proud to have worked with a wide range of organisations, spanning research, industry and government.
