ABOUT LABUST
The LABUST origins can be traced back to the late 1960s when the research group was formed at the University of Zagreb Faculty of Electrical Engineering (UNIZG-FER) and at the association of shipbuilding industry „Jadranbrod“ in Zagreb. In the 1970s and 1980s cooperation with the Brodarski Institute in Zagreb, Shipyard „Uljanik“ in Pula, and Central Research Institute of Marine Fleet in Leningrad was intense. The main topics of R&D at that time were navigation, guidance, and control (NGC) of ships and submarines. In the 1990s our focus diversified toward unmanned marine vehicles. During that time we operated as a research group at UNIZG-FER, to be finally established as a research laboratory LABUST in December 2011, when the legislation at the UNIZG-FER allowed the founding of research laboratories. The research staff changed over the years to reach the number of 10 researchers in 2016. LABUST is at present the only research laboratory with R&D and innovation capabilities for underwater systems and technologies on the east coast of the Adriatic Sea! We are proud to be able to maintain expertise in this domain in Croatia, against all odds. OUR
MISSION
The laboratory serves as the focal point for applied research and development activities in unmanned marine systems and technology for end-users. We exist to create new knowledge, educate students, provide advice for end-users, innovate, and implement solutions for our customers. We contribute to innovation in the sustainable exploitation of ocean resources. LABUST sets itself apart from others in its values and mission to inspire and seek challenging tasks.
OUR VISION
Our vision is to advance in multidisciplinary engineering research that innovates, applies, and teaches world-class attainment in autonomous marine systems, sensor processing, and underwater acoustics for marine science, maritime archaeology, maritime security, the offshore energy sector, and other applications.
