On the 4th
of May 2012 our theoretical simulations were proven to be correct by Raphael
Domjan and his boat Planetsolar, thanks to generous sponsorship by Candido
Swiss watches and Immosolar,
leaders in the field of solar energy
management.
We
live in a century of rapid technological advancement, where almost anything is
possible. Our mission is to take robotics to sea to make the oceans a safer
place for humans and to help
reduce reliance on diesel fuels - especially for
marine cargo transport.
