Osheon Deploys Robot Into Hurricane Core
|
9.9
In 2025, UK startup Osheon deployed a wind-powered uncrewed surface vehicle into a Category 5 Atlantic hurricane, where the surfboard-sized robot recorded real-time wind speeds (over 157 mph), wave heights (exceeding 50 feet), and ocean temperatures, NOAA/AOML reported. The in-storm measurements are being used to refine rapid intensification models and improve forecasting and disaster preparedness for coastal communities.
