01 — Mission

» We redefine the limits.

Current underwater drones are limited by batteries. Missions end when power ends.

Deep Force builds on hydrogen. Our vehicles stay submerged for days, not hours. They navigate, detect and classify without surface support. Our architecture is open. Customers keep control of their systems and data.

02 — Technology

» Three foundations.

A.

Hydrogen power.

Closed-cycle LT-PEM fuel cell. 1 kW class. 2 kWh Li-ion buffer for peak load. Metal-hydride hydrogen storage.

B.

Autonomy.

Autonomous route navigation. On-board sonar and vision classification. Beacon homing. Mesh networking for multi-vehicle operation.

C.

Open architecture.

Built on ROS 2, ArduSub and MAVLink. Standard interfaces. No vendor lock-in. Integrates with existing command systems.
