AmphiReach

Amphibious rescue platform

Amphibious autonomous rescue robot for long-range open-water casualty retrieval and shore-to-medic transfer.

Autonomous amphibious rescue for the moments that matter.

AmphiReach (AR) navigates long distances, finds and gently recovers a person in the water, protects them in a heated pod, and drives ashore to medical help.

Core capabilities

A complete rescue workflow, from open water to the shoreline.

AmphiReach (AR) closes the gap between flotation delivery and a complete rescue workflow by navigating long distances, recovering gently, protecting the casualty, and driving ashore to medical help.

Long-range autonomy

Optimized navigation for extended open-water routes with dynamic drift correction.

Thermal detection

Multi-sensor perception stack to detect heat signatures and surface anomalies.

Gentle recovery pod

Heated, protective pod with controlled buoyancy for safe recovery.

Amphibious shore transfer

Transforms from water-ready hull to a tracked chassis for shore-to-medic transfer.

Impact

Designed for long-range missions with measurable gains.

Key performance indicators from simulation and integration testing.

Workflow

Four coordinated phases to rescue and deliver.

Autonomy, perception, and gentle recovery converge into a fast, safe shore transfer.

01

Receive GPS distress

AR ingests a distress coordinate, weather context, and responder constraints.

02

Navigate with drift

Planning compensates for current and wind-driven drift while preserving energy.

03

Recover gently

Thermal detection guides the pod for safe, low-force retrieval.

04

Shore-to-medic transfer

Amphibious transformation enables seamless handoff at shore.
