About Qianniao Innovation
Qianniao Innovation is developing one uncrewed vehicle architecture that can transition among flight, surface travel and underwater movement. The Shenzhen team has taken cross-medium prototypes through repeated principle validation and sea-condition tests, targeting marine inspection and other operations that otherwise require separate aerial and subsea platforms.
Founder Wu Sihuan brings aerospace and marine-engineering training from Sun Yat-sen University, Northwestern Polytechnical University and Harbin Engineering University. A September 2026 angel round of nearly RMB10 million is supporting deeper vehicle development, commercial trials and a consumer product programme, with access to test facilities in Zhuhai's marine technology ecosystem.
