Cathx Ocean are world leaders in Underwater Optical Imaging systems for machine learning.
We have developed the world's first built for purpose Subsea Imaging system, resolving most of the technical constraints with optical imaging underwater.
These systems allow data to be collected in one tenth of the time taken with traditional imaging systems and provide the data on which the Cathx Machine Learning hardware platform will be built.
We are now planning to build and release a full suite of subsea applications and technologies to deliver efficiency and precision to a range of underwater operations.
Our customers operate in a diverse number of markets including Offshore Oil and Gas, Subsea Cables, Renewable energy, Deep water search and Salvage, Oceanographic and Subsea Archaeology.
We are changing how they see underwater and how image and measurement data can be converted to reliable and actionable information.
