ROVCO JOINS NVIDIA INCEPTION PROGRAMME vehicles, Rovco has the resources
UK based subsea company Rovco has announced plans to take artificial intelligence (AI) to new depths after being selected to join the NVIDIA Inception Programme.
Designed to nurture start-ups that are revolutionising industries with advances in AI and data science, the virtual incubator programme supports members overcome critical stages of product development, prototyping, and deployment.
Being selected by NVIDIA will see Rovco benefit from hardware grants, marketing support and training to aid the development of the firm’s range of underwater robotics and subsea inspection techniques.
As a member of the Inception Program, Rovco also participated in the NVIDIA GPU (graphic processing unit) Technology Conference in Munich on 12th October 2017 - Europe’s only dedicated conference on AI, autonomous vehicles and virtual reality.
Brian Allen, CEO of Rovco commented:
We are honoured to have been selected to join NVIDIA’s Inception Programme. It will allow us to accelerate the development of our underwater 3D visualisation and artificial intelligence services. It’s an opportunity for us to explore ideas and work with other innovators and engineers in a new way.
ROV 3D photogrammetry and AI is at the core of what we do, so support from the largest GPU provider is very beneficial to us and our ongoing R&D efforts.
Founded in 1999, NVIDIA sparked the growth of the PC gaming market, redefined modern computer graphics, and revolutionised parallel computing. It has since ignited modern AI with graphic processing units to enhance computers, robots and cars.
