About the company
Tridentis Advanced Marine Vehicles LLC (doing business as Tridentis AMV), a Hawaii-based limited liability company, develops and deploys autonomous marine survey vessels and data-processing systems for federal environmental research and naval engineering support, operating primarily as a grant recipient (86% of recent awards) under NOAA's Small Business Innovation Research program, with one subcontract under a Navy prime.
Tridentis is headquartered in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, and operates as a for-profit LLC. The vendor's federal footprint is highly concentrated: six of seven recent awards (100% of combined potential value) flow from the Department of Commerce's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration under the SBIR program (CFDA 11.021), with one subcontract to the Department of the Navy. The vendor's capability portfolio centers on autonomous surface vessels equipped with onboard artificial intelligence and advanced data processing for marine environmental survey and recovery missions. The company develops and fields two primary platforms: the Ghost Hunter autonomous surface vessel and the Autonomous Coastal Monitor technology, both paired with data-processing techniques developed in partnership with the University of Delaware. Tridentis performs work in Hawaii with East Coast research and operational deployments in Chesapeake Bay and broader U.S. marine environments.
Recent grant awards include a $683,131 NOAA SBIR Phase II project grant (awarded September 1, 2026, performance through August 31, 2028) to deploy the Ghost Hunter equipped with AI edge processing for autonomous ghost pot identification and recovery guidance in marine environments, building on Phase I feasibility research completed in 2024. An earlier $683,131 NOAA SBIR Phase I award (August 1, 2024, completed January 31, 2025) demonstrated autonomous survey feasibility using the Autonomous Coastal Monitor to generate ghost pot location datasets in Chesapeake Bay. On the subcontract side, Tridentis performs naval systems engineering support to CACI, Inc. — Federal under the Seaport Next Generation vehicle for ship design, engineering, and integration support on amphibious and auxiliary vessels. Award activity is sparse and episodic — one award per year from 2019 through 2021, then two in 2024, one in 2026 — reflecting the stage-gate structure of SBIR funding. One award (the active September 2026 grant) faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.
