Insights
Coda Octopus' new miniaturized 3D sonar technology targets growing underwater drone and robotics markets with significant competitive advantages.
Coda Octopus Group has achieved a notable technological breakthrough with its new Echoscope PIPE NANO GEN Series® of real-time 3D/4D/5D/6D imaging sonars. After two years of development and substantial investment in custom chipset technology, the company has successfully miniaturized its advanced sonar systems to approximately smartphone size while maintaining imaging capabilities.
The strategic significance of this launch is substantial. The NANO GEN Series directly addresses the rapidly expanding market for smaller underwater vehicles, drones, and robotics that previously couldn't accommodate larger imaging systems. This represents a critical market expansion opportunity for Coda Octopus in both defense and commercial sectors.
What makes this development particularly valuable is the dual functionality: these compact units deliver both 3D spatial awareness and forward-looking obstacle avoidance in a single, power-efficient package. This consolidation of multiple sensor capabilities into one unit offers compelling advantages for small underwater platforms where space and power are at a premium.
The company has already conducted successful trials with key defense customers, suggesting potential for near-term integration into military programs. This points to a clear commercialization pathway with high-value customers. The defense sector typically represents stable, long-term contracts that could provide recurring revenue streams.
Beyond military applications, the technology targets commercial diving platforms, diver wearable solutions, and underwater robotics - diversifying its market potential. This strategic product expansion positions Coda Octopus to capitalize on the broader trend toward smaller, more versatile underwater vehicles across multiple industries.
ORLANDO, FL, Sept. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coda Octopus Group, Inc. (“CODA” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CODA), a global market leader in 3D/4D/5D/6D imaging sonar technology for real time subsea intelligence and cutting-edge diving technology, today announced that it has launched its new ultra small factor series of real time 3D, 4D, 5D and 6D imaging sonars: its Echoscope PIPE NANO GEN Series®.
The Company’s Echoscope PIPE NANO Gen Series® of sonars is designed specifically for use with the new generation of smaller and lighter underwater vehicles, drones, diver platforms and robotics. These sonars are a shade bigger than a smart phone – and therefore perfect for deployment on the smaller underwater vehicles and on diving platforms that are now widely in use.
The NANO GEN Series sonars offer the same uncompromising quality of real time 3D, 4D, 5D and 6D imaging as our proven Echoscope PIPE® sonars and offers a new capability for forward looking obstacle avoidance and spatial awareness on small platforms.
Coda Octopus President of Technology, Blair Cunningham states:
“I am truly excited to introduce our new NANO GEN Series sonars which are now in an ultra-small form factor but does not compromise our exceptional, proven real time 3D imaging capability we are known for. We have been developing this series over the last two years and have made a sizable investment in our next generation custom technology chipset. This breakthrough has enabled us to miniaturize our real-time 3D imaging technology for this key addressable market.
With the increasing demand for smaller underwater vehicles that still require advanced 3D imaging, we have responded with the NANO GEN Series. These ultra-compact sonars allow small underwater platforms to enhance capabilities and consolidate multiple sensors into one compact, power-efficient unit—delivering both 3D spatial awareness and forward-looking obstacle avoidance.
We have already concluded several successful trials with our NANO GEN Series sonars with key Defense customers, who are excited about the technology and have started looking at its integration into programs. In addition to subsea vehicle applications, the NANO GEN Series is also ideal for diving platforms, diver wearable solutions and all underwater robotics.
I must also commend our R&D team for two years of exceptional efforts in miniaturizing this advanced technology for these addressable markets. This is an exceptional innovative feat. Our focus with the NANO GEN Series is to support the Defense sector small class underwater vehicles as well as diving platforms including diver wearable solution and robotics.”

About Coda Octopus Group, Inc.
The Company, founded in 1994, is an established supplier to the underwater/subsea market. It supplies a range of hardware and software solutions to this market which includes key proprietary real time 4D/5D/6D imaging sonars, marketed under the name Echoscope® and Echoscope PIPE® addressing the underwater imaging sensor market along with new generation diving technology, Diver Augmented Vision Display (DAVD) system. The Company’s Echoscope PIPE® sonar generates real-time 3D/4D/5D images of moving objects underwater including in zero visibility water conditions. Echoscope technology is used globally for numerous applications in both the commercial offshore market and defense underwater markets. Applications for the Echoscope® technology include complex mapping underwater, subsea intervention, subsea asset placements, salvage and recovery, search and rescue, offshore renewables cable installations and surveys, marine construction, subsea infrastructure installation, mining applications, robotics (3D Perception and Depth), breakwater construction and monitoring, decommissioning, diving applications and port and harbor security.
The recently launched new generation of diving technology, DAVD, has the potential to change the way global diving operations are performed (both in the Defense and Commercial space) because it is a fully integrated singular system for topside control and fully connected diver HUD system, allowing both the topside and diver to share a range of critical information and visualize the same underwater scene. Furthermore, the DAVD integrates the Company’s sonar technology, which allows dive operations to be performed in zero visibility conditions, a common problem that besets these operations.
The Company recently acquired Precision Acoustics Limited, an acoustics sensor and materials business. This Company is a recognized leader in the ultrasound and acoustic measurement field. Specializing in acoustic hydrophone design and innovative acoustic materials, they provide a comprehensive range of products and solutions, with a primary focus on medical imaging and Non-Destructive Testing (NDT). NDT is used to validate the viability of structures such as aircraft, ship hulls, wellheads and other subsea structures. Their expertise extends to working closely with national and global standard-setting bodies (such as the National Physical Laboratory of the UK), contributing to the establishment of the primary measurement standards in the industry.
The Company also includes two discrete Defense engineering businesses Coda Octopus Martech Ltd (UK based) and Coda Octopus Colmek, Inc. (U.S. based) whose primary business model is to supply sub-assemblies into broader mission critical programs in the capacity of sub-contractors to the Prime Defense Contractors. Their scope of supply under these programs typically includes concept, design, prototype, manufacturing, and post-sale support. This gives them the opportunity to have repeat orders for these sub-assemblies through the life of these programs.
