Ocean Power Technologies Unveils Enhanced Merrows鈩� Maritime Domain Awareness Solution

MONROE TOWNSHIP, N.J., Aug. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ocean Power Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American: OPTT) (鈥淥PT鈥� or the 鈥淐ompany鈥�), a leader in intelligent maritime solutions, today announced a major upgrade to its AI-capable Merrows鈩� Maritime Domain Awareness Solution (MDAS). The updated system expands its role as an ISR node鈥攅nabling enhanced maritime domain awareness and autonomous collaboration across surface, subsurface, and aerial platforms.

Built with mission-driven design, Merrows鈩� now delivers faster performance, greater stability, and improved security鈥攅mpowering operators to maintain a persistent watch in contested or remote environments. The system鈥檚 expanded flexibility also allows multiple users to monitor the same or different assets simultaneously, while new integration pathways make it easier to fuse third-party feeds such as global AIS, weather data, and advanced mapping tools.

鈥淢errows鈩� is evolving into the connective tissue of maritime operations,鈥� said Philipp Stratmann, President and CEO of Ocean Power Technologies. 鈥淭hese upgrades allow it to function as a true ISR node鈥攕upporting autonomous platforms, streamlining decision-making, and strengthening awareness in complex maritime domains.鈥�

The enhanced AI-capable Merrows鈩� MDAS can be deployed independently or paired with OPT鈥檚 PowerBuoy^庐 platforms and WAM-V^庐 Unmanned Surface Vehicles to create persistent, autonomous monitoring networks tailored to mission requirements.
