Sla Robotics

Robotics Engineering · 2 employees · Founded 2024 · Raleigh, United States

At SLA Robotics, our aim to revolutionize access to locations and information in regions that are remote and dangerous to humans and other robots. SLA Robotics has developed the only autonomous, multi-terrain, and submersible robot that provides unlimited access to terrains inaccessible to commercially available robots. Existing robotic platforms are limited to land or sea environments and do not possess the autonomy, endurance, nor modularity to operate in transition zones between domains. As a result, surf zones, tidal flats, shallow waters, coastlines, wetlands, ocean floor, and Arctic, have remained mostly inaccessible and unexplored. SLA Robotics has resolved these problems by developing the Land And Sea Robot, or LASR, that can traverse multiple terrains on land, on water, underwater, on seabed, and onshore. LASR combines a robust, multi-terrain propulsion system, our proprietary buoyancy control mechanism, and AI-based autonomy and control to create an ‘all-in-one’ robotic solution for operating autonomously wherever it is needed.
