"From Research to Real-World Systems"
Technology transfer from URRG to IROSS
Origins
-
IROSS traces its technological roots to the work carried out by the Underwater Robotics Research Group (URRG) at Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Over the years, URRG developed multiple underwater, surface, and inspection robotic platforms that formed the foundation of IROSS’s current capabilities.
Technology Transfer
🌊 Underwater Robotics Platforms
Mini ROV
Shallow to medium-depth visual and acoustic inspection for underwater structures and confined environments.
- Hovering AUV
Autonomous visual inspection for marine growth and subsea structures.
- Underwater Glider
Long-duration ocean monitoring platform for environmental and survey missions
🚤 Water Surface Robotics
- DrosoBOTs (Swarm ASV)
Swarm-based surface robots for lake mapping, hydrologic surveys, and search & rescue research.
- High-Speed ASV
Rapid bathymetry mapping and waypoint navigation.
Dual-Hulled ASV
Stable surface platform for extended bathymetric surveys.
🛢️ Monitoring & Infrastructure Systems
Malaysian Integrated Ocean Observation System (MIOOS)
Integrated environmental monitoring with surveillance and solar-powered autonomy.
Pipe Inspection Robot (Crawler)
Compact internal pipe inspection robot, fully 3D-printed — an early foundation for IROSS’s inspection focus.
🔬 Sensor Technologies
These sensor technologies underpin IROSS’s approach to perception, monitoring, and autonomy
- Multidirectional flow sensors inspired by biological cupula
- Fluidic-based coplanar electrode sensors
- Acoustic sensing systems
