The surf zone remains one of the most dangerous and least understood environments in military operations, concealing mines, unexploded ordnance, and obstacles that threaten both personnel and mission success. Traditionally, clearing this route would require military divers, reconnaissance teams, or specialised vessels to move into harm’s way. Every metre of progress would carry risk. Every […]
Survey smarter. Investigate faster. Recover with confidence. When police dive teams are called to investigate a submerged vehicle, recover critical evidence, or conduct a search and recovery operation, every minute spent searching increases resource demands and can expose divers to unnecessary risk. Modern robotic and sonar technologies are changing that equation, enabling teams to […]
What if a single instrument could reveal both sediment concentration and particle size throughout the water column in real time? Understanding how sediment moves through rivers, estuaries, coastal environments, and laboratory flumes is fundamental to modern oceanographic and environmental research. From coastal erosion studies and dredge plume monitoring to sediment transport modelling and habitat […]

The Teledyne RESON SeaBat T51‑R represents […]
Faster Mine Detection. Safer Naval Operations. For decades, naval mines have remained one of the most effective and affordable maritime threats. Capable of disrupting sea lines of communication, delaying military operations, and threatening critical infrastructure, mines present a challenge far disproportionate to their cost. While naval platforms continue to evolve, the task of detecting […]
From mine warfare systems to advanced oceanographic sensors, Australia’s underwater capability relies on more than cutting-edge technology; it depends on the expertise that keeps it operational. In an environment where equipment reliability directly impacts safety, mission success, and operational effectiveness, access to responsive local support is critical. BlueZone Group has built its reputation on […]
How REMUS, Kraken SAS and SeeByte software are shaping the future of autonomous MCM operations. For more than 25 years, BlueZone Group has been introducing world-leading maritime and defence technologies into Australia, building a reputation as a trusted Defence partner that not only delivers capability but sustains it throughout its operational life. The recent […]
As we close out another financial year, it’s the perfect moment to reflect on the dedication, passion, and hard work that has defined the BlueZone Group Commercial Team over the past twelve months. This year has been one of growth, momentum, and milestone achievements; each one made possible by a team that consistently shows up […]
$18m contract award will hand divers control of seabed survey and EOD. Since 2023, Greensea IQ has been helping armed forces take control of one of the most difficult areas in the battlespace, the surf zone. Combatting low visibility, uneven ground and monstrous swells, Bayonet, an amphibious underwater ground vehicle (AUGV) offers amphibious autonomy […]
