A boat that makes its own decisions at sea.
ZeroneTech is a multidisciplinary engineering and design team at Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University (ALKÜ), developing unmanned maritime systems. We bring artificial intelligence, autonomous control, electronics and mechanical design together in one platform.
Our KILIÇ autonomous surface vessel placed 4th in Türkiye and won the Best Design Award at TEKNOFEST 2025. In 2026 we represented Türkiye at NJORD – The Autonomous Ship Challenge in Trondheim, Norway, and won the Best User Interface Award. The same year we finished 3rd in Türkiye at TEKNOFEST 2026.
KILIÇ
An autonomous surface vessel designed by our team, from the hull to the software.
ZeroneTech Kılıç – Version 2
Kılıç Version 2 delivers higher performance with its optimized hull form and improved stability structure. Thanks to its redesigned internal layout and modular architecture, it is suitable for autonomous missions and field operations.
