Saildrone, a company specializing in autonomous maritime technology, has secured $60 million in financing to expand its operations into Europe. The funding will support the launch of AI-powered unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) designed for real-time maritime surveillance across the Baltic and North Seas. This initiative aims to enhance maritime security and defense capabilities in the region. The investment has garnered support from Lux Capital, which expressed enthusiasm about doubling down on Saildrone's growth. In related developments, Red Cat has formed a partnership with USV to bolster its maritime capabilities in response to increasing demand for autonomous platforms.
