The Pittsburgh-based company will deploy robots and sensors to inspect Navy ships, beginning with 18 vessels in the U.S. Pacific Fleet. The robots create detailed digital twins of each ship, enabling predictive maintenance to reduce downtime. The deal supports the Navy's goal of achieving 80% ship readiness by 2027, addressing a problem where roughly 40% of the fleet is currently unavailable at any time due to lengthy maintenance cycles costing $13–20 billion annually. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
