It is suitable for cable installa- tions up to 12mm in diameter which are awkward or costly to remove for repair and maintenance. Oceanscience debuted the Underway SV, designed to allow sound velocity profiling from a mov- ing vessel. The Oceanscience under- way SV offrs vertical sound velocity profiles in minutes, with having to stop the survey vessel. The latest Valeport digital sound velocity meas- urement technology is combined with the Oceanscience underway sen- sor deployment to generate a new tool for hydrographic surveying. Satlantic performed a live instru- ment demonstrations of its new in situ FIRe active fluorometer system onboard the RV Callista, which included an overview of the FIRe technology, logging and real-time dis- play of field measurements as well as a review of the new FIReCom soft- ware. Applanix announced at Ocean Business the release of POS MV V5 (Position and Orientation System for Marine Vessels), the next generation of its industry leading georeferencing and motion compensation system for hydrographic surveying. The system is available in three performance lev- els—POS MV WaveMaster, POS MV 320 and POS MV Elite—to produce an optimal solution for a variety of vessels and conditions. Version 5 provides the robust and reliable positioning and orientation information for which Applanix products are known, even in the most difficult environments for hydro- graphic survey applications. The lat- est version expands the performance of POS MV with a number of key new features including: "With the introduction of POS MV V5, we have further expanded the limits of the operating environments in which Applanix technology can excel,” commented Peter Stewart, Product Manager at Applanix. “Whether you operate in a busy port, or in the most remote offshore areas, the new fea- tures of POS MV V5 ensure we con- tinue to provide the most accurate, reliable and robust position and ori- entation solution for hydrographic survey applications.” ORE Offshore launched a new product at Ocean Business; the SPORT acoustic release brings the reliability and easy-to-use features of the standard Push Off Release Transponder (PORT) and puts it into a light-weight easy-to-handle package. The new Shallow water Push Off Release Transponder Oceanscience debuted the Underway SV, designed to allow sound velocity profiling from a moving vessel. PDM Neptec’s Gary Kelly and Susie Culhane reported brisk traffic at OB ‘11. PDM Neptec launched two new products, including the low loss Omicron Subsea Fiber Optic Connector Teledyne TSS range of DMS motion sensors was launched at Ocean Business. L-3 Klein’s new UUV-3500 product line leverages a powerful wholly FPGA imple- mented - multi- channel pro- cessing engine.
