Apeiron Labs creates autonomous underwater robots for ocean exploration. These are inexpensive vehicles, three feet long, five inches in diameter and weighing just over 20 pounds, travel 400 meters up and down the water column, collecting water samples to measure temperature, salinity and acoustics once or twice a day. They can be launched from boats or aircraft. After diving, the AUV navigates its terrain autonomously - the operating system uses models of the ocean to predict where it will surface. When it finally breaches and reconnects with the operating system - it incorporates the new data to refine its models. Apeiron sells its products to both civilian and defense customers. The Pentagon can use them to eavesdrop on submarines off the US coast, while fisheries may require more detailed temperature and salinity data in key fishing areas.
