About
subdron is a defense software developer based in Lauterach, Austria working in unmanned systems, radar & sensors, defense software & ai.
subdron develops, produces and services autonomous underwater drone systems for subsea inspection and monitoring. Its core technology is proprietary Relative Object Navigation (RON), which positions an inspection vehicle relative to the structure being surveyed, allowing autonomous data collection in confined, low-visibility and near-structure environments. The company is hardware-agnostic and can integrate its navigation and data stack with existing AUV or ROV platforms. Applications include port wall and quay inspection, hull inspection, offshore cables, pipelines and energy infrastructure, and critical maritime infrastructure monitoring. subdron also has a dedicated Dual-Use and Defence offering aimed at navies, defence primes and critical infrastructure operators, providing underwater domain awareness and persistent seabed monitoring. The company states its team combines 30 years of defence experience with underwater robotics expertise, and that it works with port authorities, fleet operators, naval commands and engineering firms. Its data processing emphasises European data sovereignty.
