Published purpose

As part of Kraken’s ongoing efforts to extend the companies capabilities with respect to Robotics as a Service (RaaS), Kraken has invested in several autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) platforms including the ThunderFish XL-R, ThunderFish LD-UUV, and Riptide R100. Over the next year, Kraken plans to field three commercial AUVs as assets for their RaaS programs and considerable engineering test platforms will be required to support Kraken’s continued R&D efforts. All work is expected to be completed at the Kraken's Dartmouth facility located at the Center for Ocean Ventures and Entrepreneurship (COVE).
