Novacavi is collaborating with ETH Zurich on the POLARIS project, which aims to develop an advanced autonomous underwater vehicle for climate monitoring and security research. Announced on January 7, 2026, the project focuses on non-invasive measurement of ice thickness beneath lake surfaces, allowing for the collection of high-resolution data without disturbing the ice. This innovative approach minimizes risks for personnel in extreme conditions. Novacavi's contribution includes the creation of a neutrally buoyant cable that enhances the vehicle's reliability, maneuverability, and overall mission safety. Francesca Faverio, Novacavi's Business Development Manager, expressed pride in supporting this initiative, highlighting its importance for environmental understanding and safety in challenging operational contexts. The project is based in Zurich, Switzerland.
