We're CHASING
The ocean is the cradle of human life, rich in resources and treasures. Human exploration has only covered 5% of the ocean, leaving countless unsolved mysteries waiting to be discovered and explored together.
It is this curiosity about the unknown that serves as one of the original motivations for Chasing Innovation to enter the underwater drone industry.
For a long time in the past, there were no civilian, portable, and easy-to-operate small underwater drones on the market. Most were large professional ROVs weighing several tons, assembled with foreign components and complicated to operate.
Since its establishment, Chasing Innovation has been committed to making underwater exploration simpler, and underwater robots for complex operations smarter and more user-friendly. In 2016, leveraging components from the drone industry chain around Shenzhen and relying on the entrepreneurial team's expertise in software, algorithms, craftsmanship, and assembly, Chasing Innovation completed the development of the first-generation underwater robot prototype.
After years of development, Chasing Innovation has become one of the few global companies integrating R&D, production, and sales of underwater drones. Through years of deep cultivation in the industry market, the control system, power system, and accessory compatibility of the Chasing P-series industrial-grade underwater robots have reached the industry-leading level, and are widely used in various underwater operation scenarios such as scientific research and exploration, emergency rescue, hull inspection, and aquaculture. Examples include the BBC filming marine documentaries, European and American fire rescue teams conducting underwater search and rescue, Norwegian fisheries inspections, scientific research by the University of Tokyo’s expedition team on seabed research, and astronaut training at NASA laboratories.
1. UK Scientific Expedition: Salmon Migration
In the BBC documentary Wild Isles, the Chasing P100 captured salmon swimming upstream to freshwater areas underwater for the first time.
2. US Emergency Rescue: Recovery of Small Equipment
A man was attacked by a crocodile while boating on the Myakka River in Florida, USA. The rescue team successfully retrieved the man’s GoPro camera that fell into the river using the Chasing P100.
3. Norwegian Aquaculture: Mussel Sampling and Testing
At a mussel farm in Lysefjord, Norway, managers used the Chasing P200 equipped with a robotic arm for sampling to detect toxic algae, heavy metals, and chemical pollution levels, ensuring the growth quality of farmed products and monitoring water quality.
4. Japanese Scientific Expedition: Seabed Cliff Exploration
The University of Tokyo’s scientific expedition team used the Chasing P200 PRO to take close-up shots of underwater cliffs formed by seabed faults and fault displacement caused by the Noto Peninsula earthquake.
5. US Scientific Research: Underwater Weightlessness Simulation Training
The International Institute of Astronautical Sciences (IIAS) Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL) uses the Chasing P100 to record astronaut training for simulating space weightlessness underwater.
The ocean is a very important future for Shenzhen. In the marine technology and equipment industry, Chinese enterprises still have many areas to strive for. Chasing Innovation hopes to serve as a representative enterprise in marine exploration from now on, collaborate with the surrounding industrial chain, drive technological development, and contribute to building Shenzhen into a global marine central city.
