After the Second World War the company specialized in the making of special underwater vehicles, pioneering future technologies and maintaining leadership thanks to the training of highly qualified and discreet personnel.
We are aware that due to the nature of the sector you operate in, much information needs to be kept confidential, however as pioneers and leaders in the field, in your opinion what are the toughest yet stimulating challenges that you will have to face regarding the underwater domain, both in the civilian and military in the upcoming 5 years?
We believe that, in the years to come, one of the most technologically challenging aspects will be the development of advanced AI algorithms, which will provide unmanned systems with robust and reliable decision-making autonomy, thereby expanding their potential operational applications.
Product customisation is a fundamental aspect: the operational requirements of the end user may necessitate configuration changes which, when considering dimensional and weight constraints, can significantly impact the vehicle. A modular design approach is certainly advantageous in this regard, as it makes the platform more versatile, facilitates innovation, and allows for the maximisation of shared components across different configurations. Our “tailored” approach to vehicle development is undoubtedly one of our strengths, consistent with the craftsmanship and attention to detail that distinguish Made in Italy products abroad.
