TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Underwater Robotics Market: Atlas Maridan ApS, Bluefin Robotics Corp. and Deep Ocean Engineering Inc.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Engineering team said: ”With the increasing adoption of underwater robots in both the private and public sectors, several market vendors and research institutions are developing smart underwater robots with additional capabilities. This is expected to provide market vendors with a competitive edge in the steadily growing market. The smart robot technology combines advanced features such as increased efficiency, high speed, portable design, efficient communication, energy efficiency, increased safety, and accident prevention measures. These advanced features offer substantial benefits over traditional robots. Furthermore, several vendors are focusing on developing environmentally-friendly robots in order to avoid any disturbance to aquatic animals.”
According to the report, one of the main drivers in this market is the growing need for undersea mining. The need for underwater robotics in the field of deep sea mining is expected to increase in the future because of the fast-depleting land resources.
Further, the report states that one of the main challenges in this market is the limitations of underwater communication. The presence of water and its high pressure levels slows down the signal transmission speed and creates background noises and echoes.
The report also includes a discussion of the other vendors operating in this market. The other vendors in the market are ECA Hytec SA, Inuktun Services Ltd., International Submarine Engineering Ltd., MacArtney Group, NeuroRobotics Ltd., Oceaneering International Inc., Perry Slingsby Systems Ltd., Schilling Robotics Inc., and Soil Machine Dynamics Ltd.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
