    “From Aerospace to the Sea: How Carleton Alumni are Navigating the Future of Underwater Autonomy”

    “The idea wasn’t to build an autonomous underwater vehicle. The idea was that we could build it.”

    Samuel Scrivens · Co-Founder & CEO

    “Water finds every mistake. One bad seal can end a mission. An hour underwater without leaks isn’t luck; it’s months of stressing over details nobody will ever see.”
