About

Kraken Robotics, founded in 2012 and publicly traded, is a Canadian marine technology company headquartered in Canada with additional operations in the USA, UK, and Germany. The firm serves clients in more than 30 countries across the defense, offshore energy, and commercial maritime sectors.

The company designs and manufactures advanced subsea systems built around several core technical domains. These include Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS), a technology for high-resolution seabed imaging; subsea LiDAR; sub-bottom imaging systems; and specialized subsea batteries. Kraken also develops integrated underwater robotic systems that combine these sensor technologies for autonomous operations.

Kraken's work sits at the intersection of sensing, robotics, and marine engineering. Its product portfolio addresses challenges in underwater survey, inspection, and intelligence gathering, with applications ranging from naval mine countermeasures to offshore infrastructure monitoring.
