ReefWorks facilities accommodate airborne, surface, and underwater drones. The test range includes laboratories, workshops, wharf facilities, and infrastructure at three sea test ranges with different conditions and autonomous corridors.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Different tiers of testing environments are available, depending on the TRL (Technology Readiness Levels) of the technology being tested. Early tech can use advanced simulators and digital twinning in a virtual environment. Technology ready for physical testing can utilize the controlled SeaSim<\/em> environment, able to set and vary environmental conditions to replicate real-world scenarios: day vs night, shallow vs deep, as well as varying temperature and climate profiles. Dedicated tanks are also available for obstacle avoidance and payload testing.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

As technology is proven, access can be granted to the tropical marine test ranges. Including two autonomous corridors to test unmanned technologies, and at-sea infrastructure for sea trials.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
