Tocaro Blue

Tocaro Blue is a developer of AI and machine learning-powered marine radar processing solutions that provide crewed and uncrewed naval and marine defense vessels with enhanced situational awareness capabilities, ensuring collision avoidance and successful mission outcomes.

Next-generation marine radar-based perception for naval and defense applications

Our technology upgrades the capabilities of legacy marine radar systems, providing solutions to the excess noise and slow scanning speed of traditional radar while continuing to leverage its long range and reliable performance under harsh conditions.

Trained on a vast dataset of over two million labeled radar images, our ProteusCore software utilizes sophisticated machine learning algorithms to automatically tune radar gain and adjust the range, continually optimizing detection performance based on factors such as environmental conditions, sea state, and proximity to land. The system generates real-time mission-critical data that can be used to enhance navigation and collision avoidance.

Use ProteusCore to create intelligent and simplified next generation interfaces to enable quick decision making for vessel operators.

ProteusCore for crewed tactical craft

Providing automatic tuning for best performance and delivering intuitive results to the vessel’s display, ProteusCore significantly reduces the cognitive burden upon operators of small tactical craft, allowing them to focus on piloting.

The powerful software can classify a wide range of potential threats and hazards, and track hundreds of such objects simultaneously with no need for manual intervention. Custom collision alerts can be configured according to the needs of your mission, keeping you safe in dynamic and demanding waters.

ProteusCore for USVs & ASVs

ProteusCore allows uncrewed and autonomous vessels to see further than optical sensors alone, and the fusion of radar and optical detections ensures more accurate target validation and improved mission success.

Real-time data can be easily delivered to USV autopilot systems, enhancing the range and effectiveness of autonomous navigation and collision avoidance. ProteusCore’s advanced perception capabilities are also essential for supporting USV swarming and force multiplication operations.

ProteusCore

Machine learning-powered marine radar processing software for enhanced vessel perception

ProteusCore is a powerful software package that utilizes proprietary machine learning models to provide crewed and uncrewed vessels with rapid and reliable detection, classification and tracking of hundreds of marine radar targets simultaneously. It enhances the capabilities of legacy radar systems to create next-generation perception systems that operate without the need for manual intervention, constant range and gain tuning, or human interpretation.

The versatile software requires only CPU processing, making it easy to integrate into existing vessels without needing to upgrade to more advanced and expensive computing systems. ProteusCore is designed to be embedded in your existing tech stack as an executable application. Our team will compile an executable for your OS and hardware ecosystem for deployment.

ProteusCore can be run on your hardware or our specialized devices, and is compatible with a variety of radars from industry-leading manufacturers such as Garmin, Raymarine, Simrad and Furuno.

Key features include:

• AutoFocus & CPU-Efficient Operation – Automatic gain/range control tailored to tactical environments, operates without GPU on standard mission hardware
• Object Classification & Tracking – ML-enhanced radar processing identifies vessels, landmasses, buoys, and wakes while tracking all targets in view with real-time updates
• Collision Avoidance & Trajectory Output – Calculates and reports velocity, predicted paths, and closest point of approach to support rapid tactical decision-making
• Radar-Based ADAS Support – Enables autopilot systems on tactical craft with automatic throttle and steering input from radar-classified data
• Integrated Situational Awareness – Embeds radar intelligence into UIs or C2 systems for actionable insights without operator burden
• Developer Tools & Flexible Deployment – Available as a C++ static library or executable, with radar and NMEA 2000 configuration tools for streamlined integration
