USVs are used in various domains such as oceanographic research, maritime security & surveillance, oil & gas exploration, and defense & military operations. The increasing demand for USVs in the defense and military sectors is one of the key drivers of market growth. They are used in military missions such as surveillance & reconnaissance, mine detection & clearance, and anti-submarine warfare. USVs have several advantages over manned vessels including lower personnel risks and increased operational flexibility, which are important for oceanographic research & exploration. USVs gather information about ocean currents, temperatures, and salinity. They can be outfitted with a variety of sensors to collect data on marine life, underwater topography, and environmental conditions.
