Awarded at the EUROMARITIME 2026 trade show, this prize underscores our relevance in maritime innovation, safety, and surveillance.
Everything begins in the unforgiving world of offshore racing, where an undetected floating object can cost a victory or even a life. Furthermore, that’s where we proved ourselves, first with skippers, then with recreational boaters. However, this technology carried a much broader promise.
Today, we equip search and rescue vessels, unmanned surface vehicles (USV), commercial ships, and coastal surveillance installations. Consequently, we’re establishing ourselves as the global pioneer in maritime artificial vision.
Our systems combine high-resolution optical and thermal cameras with artificial intelligence trained on millions of maritime images.
The result: automatic detection and classification of vessels, floating debris, marine mammals, persons overboard, and other critical objects.
In real time, the system generates alerts and provides visual context that neither radar nor AIS can offer. Therefore, we add a layer of visual intelligence where traditional sensors reach their limits.
While collision prevention remains a major application, we now extend to critical missions: search and rescue at sea, offshore platform security, maritime surveillance, critical infrastructure protection, and marine environment preservation.
Whether deployed aboard a vessel or from a land-based surveillance station, we reveal what remains invisible to eyes, radar, or AIS.
On stage, Solenn Gouerou, founding team member and our Marketing Director, expressed the team’s emotion: “Receiving the jury’s Special Mention means tremendously much to us and everyone who has supported us since 2018. We grew up in offshore racing and recreational boating, but this technology was always destined for broader impact. At sea and on land, we bring new detection capability. We see what escapes traditional sensors and the human eye. This recognition highlights our technology and amplifies our impact. Indeed, every new system deployed brings us closer to our objective: saving more lives at sea and strengthening maritime safety for everyone.”
She also thanked the entire team that tirelessly trains this AI. Additionally, she recognized institutional partners like Bpifrance, Brittany Region, Pôle Mer Méditerranée, and Pôle Mer Bretagne Atlantique.
Finally, she acknowledged early users, distributors, and media supporting this innovation’s deployment.
As maritime traffic intensifies and coastal zones face growing security, environmental, and sovereignty challenges, intelligent visual surveillance emerges as a structural component of modern maritime operations.
The jury’s Special Mention at EUROMARITIME 2026 marks clear recognition. Ultimately, maritime artificial vision is no longer emerging technology. It becomes an essential element of next-generation maritime safety and surveillance.
We received the jury’s Special Mention at the EUROMARITIME Awards 2026. Moreover, this distinction was created by the jury to recognize technology that has demonstrated transformative impact on maritime detection and surveillance.
