Underwater Acoustic & Optical Communication
Subsea connectivity for ocean monitoring, research, and defense.

Communication systems using acoustic waves (low bandwidth, long range) and blue-green lasers (high bandwidth, short range) to enable underwater sensor networks, autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), and offshore infrastructure. Critical for climate monitoring, marine biology, and subsea industry operations across global oceans.
