Where robotics meets the sea.

We are a student organisation at NTNU that builds autonomous boats. Our first boat, Argus, sailed in the Njord Challenge in Trondheim in 2026.

Who we are

Autonomous boats, built by students.

Our members study robotics, automation, marine technology and other subjects at NTNU. We work with the Department of Engineering Cybernetics, and we build, program and test the boats ourselves in Trondheim.
