PoliTOcean is a student team from Politecnico di Torino, founded in 2017. We design, build and program ROVs (Remotely Operated Vehicles) — remotely operated underwater robots — and compete every year in the MATE ROV Competition in the United States.
The team is organized into three departments:
- 🔧 MATE — mechanics, electronics and firmware of the ROV
- 🔬 R&D — research on hydrodynamics, materials and new technologies
- 📣 Communication & Marketing — communication, graphics and sponsors
