Robotic systems are increasingly becoming prevalent in our society. Helping humans and saving money on a range of applications; including driverless cars and automation in manufacturing and health care. They're also now exploring the world's oceans, something that humans were unable to achieve on their own. Ocean Aero is not only building the next.

Ocean Aero is developing the world's most innovative solar and wind powered unmanned underwater and surface vehicle for ocean exploration and discovery. Ranging in applications from defense and ISR to environmental monitoring and ocean floor mapping, Ocean Aero is poised to change the paradigm of data collection at sea.As a contract advisor to the company.

Get to the information that matters most, your own. ClipCard was service that let people see across all of their apps and cloud accounts, in context. Users could find recently updated documents, search contacts to find the document owner and send them an email. The team of engineers, developers and technology leaders who comprised ClipCard were pioneering.

OneOcean was an ocean data platform for information workers in the marine sector. Users could store, share and sell bathymetric and oceanographic content easily in a SaaS based environment. OneOcean pivoted its business model to attract a diverse market in big data and ultimately become ClipCard.ClipCard was a search and data discovery app for individuals.
