Our story

Built with the crews who use it.

PUWMA was developed with operators from the start. Every unit that trialled the prototype went on to order.

2021 · Field trials

The prototype was tested extensively by Cork City Missing Persons Search & Recovery and trialled by two government agencies.

Oct 2021 · First units

Every unit that ran the trials placed an order. Local Enterprise Office mentoring and support helped finalise the design.

Nov 2022 · Training

Our crew training programme was finalised and delivered to existing clients.

Oct 2025 · PUWMA 2.0

A major upgrade shaped by operator feedback: better imaging, portability and power management.

2026 · PUWMA ASV

An uncrewed survey vessel in field trials, developed with the Halpin Centre for Research and Innovation.

Q1 2027 · PUWMA LINK

Live sonar imagery streamed to the command station over WiFi and SDR radio.

What crews say

Trusted in the field.

“Ease of setup, runtime and quality of the sidescan image obtained, makes this unit a must have.”

Chris O’Donovan

Cork City Missing Persons Search & Recovery

“We are now able to see features on the river that we did not even know existed, allowing us to carry out extensive searches quickly.”

Brendan Qualter

Civil Defence Officer, Galway

“You have the delivery of the training course mastered. The breakdown between the theory and practical elements is ideal, with students finding the course both engaging and interesting.”

Maeve Hourihan

Civil Defence Officer, Cork West
