About Us

Founded in 2015, Sagar Defence Engineering (“SDE”) is a vertically integrated Indian deep-technology company developing indigenous unmanned and autonomous systems for maritime security, defence and commercial applications. We combine artificial intelligence, robotics, advanced navigation, naval architecture and systems engineering to design, develop and manufacture mission-ready autonomous platforms for surface and sub-surface operations.

At the core of our maritime autonomy portfolio is GENISYS “Boat in a Box”, our proprietary, platform-agnostic autonomy and command-and-control system. GENISYS is designed to enable compatible vessels and marine platforms to operate in remotely controlled, semi-autonomous and fully autonomous modes through AI-enabled navigation, mission planning, vehicle control and coordinated operations. Its platform-agnostic architecture enables the technology to be adapted across different vessel types, operational requirements and maritime environments.

Our autonomous platforms portfolio spans across maritime surface, sub-surface, aerial and terrestrial domains, including Unmanned Surface Vessels, Autonomous Underwater Vehicles and integrated maritime autonomy solutions for surveillance, security, research and commercial applications.

With capabilities spanning technology development, vessel design, manufacturing, systems integration, testing and lifecycle support, we are building an end-to-end maritime autonomy ecosystem. We are also establishing an Autonomous Maritime Shipyard and Systems Development Centre to support the design, integration, testing and production of autonomous vessels for Indian and international markets.
