Vision & Mission

Azorean’s mission is to deploy the robotic systems that will reshape the research and exploration of marine shallow and deep waters.

Founded in 2012, the company intends to assume a leading role in the ocean sector. We seek innovative solutions to produce low-cost specialized instruments and autonomous robots, for different market segments: from leisure to business and scientific exploration. The company’s first product is Ziphius™, an aquatic drone controlled by a smartphone.
