The Case The Case DEEP OCEAN ENGINERING has delivered nearly 600 purpose-built ROV?s and tooling to more than 250 customers in more than 40 countries since the company was founded in a small workshop in 1982. The Company The Company DOE Inc. (Deep Ocean Engineering) started as a small en-gineering company in 1982, has over 600 sophisticated ROV systems in the eld, world wide. It recently moved to a new facility in San Jose, Calif., where it is building, designing and manufacturing the high quality ROV systems. DOE Inc. manu- factures ROV solutions to a wide variety of industries. DOE Inc. understands the complexity of the work required and is focused on designing not only ROV?s for underwater in- spection and ob-servation but to integrate the necessary sensors and tools for speci c applica- tions. The Tech The Tech DOE Inc (Deep Ocean Engineering) rst developed the Phantom line of ROV?s and that system was the technological leader in the industry for many years. Recently its added more sophisticated systems to the product line. With the introduc- tion of the Sword sh S5N and Trigger sh T4N systems, it has added more features and enhancements to the ?analog: or hardwired Phantom Line. The new digital systems represent the latest in technology to meet the ever increasing demands of the new sensors and tools that are now available.

Aanderaa recently obtained a technology breakthrough in commercially available Remote Under- water Observation Systems. Its new Seaguard Host and an expanding line of distributed Smart Sensor technology, as well as our new Aanderaa Real-Time Communication System, marks a turn-ing point in distributed instrumentation for underwater and atmospheric mea- surements of Hydro Acoustic, Electro- Optical, Electro-Chemical, Pressure, Temperature, Meteorological data in observing networks and self-contained instrumentation. At the core of the sys- tem is the CANBus based AiCaP pro- tocol, which enables self-detection of connected sensors and dynamic setup of con guration menus. This protocol was developed by Aanderaa in order to achieve the extreme low power require- ments of the Underwater Observatories. The master-slave protocol extends the CANBus protocol with extra signaling to ef ciently wake up sensors or data- logger to receive data when necessary. Sensors on the bus perform their own measurements at the required intervals and send collected data to the Seaguard or Smartguard logger.
