LABUST has taken part in many scientific research projects relating to underwater systems and technologies in various roles. This includes numerous international (FP7, H2020, ONRG, INTERREG,...) as well as national projects.
As part of the UWIN-LABUST and SOUND projects, field trials took place in Rijeka on May 16th, 2024 as a preparation for Šibenik joint trials planned in July. The LABUST team tested the depth-keeping capabilities of the SOUND floater at sea and validated the behavior with an acoustic recorder.
