HYDROMEA cess in real-time. Hydromea aims to render cables obsolete, https://hydromea.com make previously prohibitively expensive projects affordable and keep humans away from risky jobs by combining au- tonomous robotics and wireless communication network systems. This presents a shift in affordability and subsea data access and minimizes human risks.

Hydromea’s line of free-space optical underwater modems allows for high-bandwidth wireless data harvesting and ex- change, opening up new ways to collect and manage data ? ow from submerged sensors and instruments. Importantly, removing the barrier to wireless data of? oad, what was pos- sible to do only with ROV previously now can be achieved

Hydromea is a Swiss-based company with core expertise with AUVs. Apart from that, Hydromea launched commer- cially its portable ROV EXRAY that has a wireless robot in underwater robotics, through-water wireless communi- payload to perform inspection tasks around especially com- cation networks and underwater navigation. Hydromea de- velops products and solutions that allow customers to have plex infrastructure.
