Launch mission demo

Our first customer

TEKMARA develops autonomous ocean infrastructure for persistent maritime monitoring, combining intelligent sensing, edge computing, and autonomous vehicle support systems.

TEKMARA has placed the first purchase order for Vantage V1. Pelagos is working toward integrating Vantage with TEKMARA’s AquaGuard infrastructure to enable persistent underwater monitoring, data exchange, and future autonomous recharging.
