Overview

JESSIKO est un robot sous-marin autonome qui utilise des nageoires pour se déplacer. Le projet a débuté en 2005 lorsque Christophe Tiraby, alors ingénieur dans l'industrie, a réussi à montrer la faisabilité d'un petit robot poisson capable de se déplacer de façon complètement autonome pendant plusieurs heures. Ensuite de nombreuses versions ont été développées jusqu'à la version V5, première version produite en série à l'occasion de l'Exposition Internationale de Yeosu. JESSIKO est un concentré d’innovation à l’origine de 3 brevets internationaux.
