## Summary

Gecko Robotics announced this week that its contract with the US Navy and the US General Services Administration (GSA) has been increased by $300 million, raising the contract ceiling to four times the previous $71 million initial IDIQ contract. Central to the expansion is the Komodo system, which can scan beneath deck non-skid coatings without removing them, generating a heat map of corrosion and material thickness across an entire deck so maintenance teams can locate damage before ships enter dry dock.
