🇦🇺 MEET HYDRUS: THE UNDERWATER DRONE MAKING SHIPWRECKS CHEAP AND DATA SEXY
The drone arms race just dove below sea level - and Hydrus is making waves.
No more million-dollar subs or teams of divers.
This little aquatic brain scans coral reefs, shipwrecks, and fish farms solo - in 4K, 3D, and full-on geo-mapped glory.
It’s fully autonomous. Obstacle-avoiding. And up to XX% cheaper than the old-school ocean ops.
In 2024, it 3D-mapped a historic wreck off Western Australia - no divers, no drama, just crisp data and clean logistics.
Deep, dirty, dangerous? Hydrus doesn’t care.
It swims where humans can’t... and makes it look easy.
