Coastal Marine Litter Observatory (CMLO) is a web system designed to detect and map marine litter in the coastal zone with the combined use of drone images and machine learning methods. CMLO has proven its capability to detect and map the marine litter in the coastal zone since it has been extensively used in Greece in more than 85 km of coastline and tested in four other countries (Portugal, Ghana, Israel, Japan). CMLO is able to detect and distinguish the seven main categories of marine litter, including plastics. The system provides functionalities for interaction with the results of the detection for every beach that is monitored. The results presented through CMLO are open through a dedicated geospatial portal. CMLO includes all the derived information as geospatial information related to: points of detection, category of detection, densities of marine litter on the selected areas, litter density maps per area of interest, e.g. island or prefecture, and spatiotemporal visualizations of marine litter per area of interest. The CMLO is a tool for quantitatively presenting marine litter distribution in the coastal zone using automated classification methods. The novelty and innovation of the CMO lie in our integrated approach, where drone data in combination with AI techniques and geoinformatics united into one workflow for marine litter detection and mapping. Through the CMLO SDI portal, users can interact and compare the marine litter detection results for every beach monitored. CMLO and the produced marine litter density maps can be used as a decision-making tools for policymakers and scientists. The integration and visualization of the litter density information allow for facilitating decision-making by stakeholders. Last but not least, the litter density maps and their spatiotemporal analysis are open to the public and organizations (Governments, Local authorities, researchers, NGOs, etc.). In the Coastal Marine Litter Observatory (CMLO), the detection of marine litter results is visualized as density maps. CMLO includes all the derived information as geospatial information related to: Densities of marine litter on various beaches in the Greek coastline, Litter density maps per area of interest, Spatiotemporal visualizations of marine litter per area of interest.

We are modeling Underwater communications using VLC to permits extend the distance of wireless communications under the water for POV or human-to-human.

Our ongoing blue economy project focuses on optimizing maritime operations through advanced IoT technology, enhancing efficiency, safety, and sustainability in the maritime industry.

Revolutionize sustainable fish farming with our open-sea platform. This cutting-edge technology boasts the capacity to grow a staggering 7,000 to 10,000 tons of fish annually, even in harsh conditions with waves up to 17 meters. 24/7 automation powered by AI monitors water quality, feeding, and disease prevention, optimizing growth and yield for each fish. Our eco-friendly design minimizes emission and pollution and incorporates sustainable energy sources.

Maritime transport is an essential link in the global economy. Today, more than 100,000 ships criss-cross the world’s ocean. Unfortunately, the sector is also responsible for more than 3% of global CO₂ emissions. Faced with this challenge, Brittany-based start-up Cormoran has developed a concept of rigid solar wings for shipowners to propel merchant ships sustainably and supply them with electricity. Founded in 2024, the company has worked with naval architecture firm Ship-ST, of which it is a spin-off (a separate company but with the same shareholders), to develop this system.

We are working on floating, wind-powered "Offshore H2 Generators" that will be operated in sea areas with high wind speeds without a power grid connection. The hydrogen produced is then immediately stored in a liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) and transported at intervals by shuttle tanker to nearby industrial ports (cf. FPSO process). We have been invited by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action to submit applications for "Prototype development of a floating offshore H2 generator and planning of GW offshore hydrogen farms". Now, with the help of BlueInvest, we want to start planning the financing of a prototype. This is a requirement for the subsequent construction of GW hydrogen farms with industrial/VC-investors within the EEZs of European states.

Founded by scientists and engineers passionate about the oceans, D-ICE Engineering is a deeptech founded in 2015 in France with the ambition to contribute to three major challenges of the maritime and marine energy sectors : reducing carbon footprint, improving safety at sea and production of clean energy. Propelled by a team of 25 engineers and PhDs in hydrodynamics, applied mathematics, robotics, control, artificial intelligence, system engineering and software engineering, D-ICE develops numerical multiphysics tools for modelling and simulating complex systems at sea as well as innovative systems and software for navigation, control, optimization and decision support of maritime assets.

Development of the necessary technology, capacity and business model for larges-scale marine ecological restoration, especially seagrass meadows in the Mediterranean. This includes commercial scale production, stocking and growth in innovative land-based and marine facilities; site selection and environmental engineering and biological enhancement and control; mechanisation and up-scaling; best use of underwater and 4.0 technologies; long-term management and monitoring reliable and sufficient fund raising (carbon compensation, impact investment and commercial restoration).

Projects for complete coastal radio solution based upon own products and software integrated with 3rd party equipment, where we sell 3-4-5 projects each year to over 30 countries Products for martime radio survey, where we sell approx 100-120 each year in 85 countries, including calibration and repair services. Both areas are regulated by IMO with a global reach

We design, build and operate bespoke hybrid power systems for marine applications. The hybrid power system allows the existing diesel Genset to run at peak efficiency and then switches over to battery mode to provide power once fully charged. Renewable generation provides additional charge to the battery bank, further reducing the requirement for the diesel generator. The operating principle is: The electrical load is usually a fraction of generator capacity. Excess generator capacity is used to charge the battery system. Electricity for appliances is provided from the battery system. The system is fully automated between the generator and battery controls.
