About Develogic
Develogic GmbH, headquartered in Hamburg, develops and manufactures underwater data acquisition and communication systems for requirements in defense, offshore energy and ocean research. The portfolio includes acoustic modems and positioning systems, underwater acoustic recorders, sonar transponders, autonomous seafloor landers and pressure-resistant housings for applications from shallow water to full ocean depth. Manufacturing comprises CNC machining, CAM programming and mechanical assembly at the Hamburg site, complemented by pressure-tolerant subsea batteries, low-current electronics and system integration of third-party sensors. Services include service, repair, calibration as well as Data as a Service with managed deployment and offshore operations, in partnership with north.io (Gabler Group). Customers include European navies, leading ocean research institutions and offshore energy companies; systems have been deployed, among other places, in Japan's Exclusive Economic Zone for environmental assessment of deep-sea mining.
