Products
Sonar & Echo Sounding Equipment
Aqua-drums
Fish sizing sonar instrumentation for sea cage aquaculture.
Acoustic Sub-seabed Interogator (asi)
ASI produces spatial geotechnical property variation of the
seabed at a much lower cost than drilling. It is a static sonar
device that produces an 'acoustic core' of the seabed sediments,
5 metres in diamenter and 5 - 10 meters in depth of penetration,
for geotechnical purposes. The 'acoustic core' can then be
analysed using advanced visualization sofware
Shellfish Ultrasonic Probe
The Shellfish Ultrasonic Probe provides a non-invasive, non-
destructive test and meaure of live shellfish health and meat
content, enabling harvestors, processors, resource managers and
traders to harvest, process and sell only those specimens that
have real commercial value and potential. The quality control
data produced by the Shellfish Ultrasonic Probe adds significant
value throughout the supply chain by enabling stakeholders to
better manage the resource, put a better quality product on the
market, time the market for maximum price, and ensure a more
reliable supply of product on the market at any one time.
Services
Marine Research & Development
Benthic-drums
Marine Environmental Engineering using patented Benthic-DRUMS
equipment to measure the health of the benthos.
Apl-drums
Detection and classification system of antipersonnel land mines
and munitions for humanitarian de-mining and unexploded ordnance
(UXO) clearance in shallow waterways(lakes, rivers, canals,
beaches, rice fields, and swamps)using proprietary APL-DRUMS
technology.
Space-drums
Containerless processing facility in microgravity environment
providing advanced materials, fluid physics and biotechnological
processing services and experimental support for scientific
research and experimental development projects aboard the
International Space Station. Space-DRUMS is the first
commercial venture on board the Internaltional Space Station. A
full suite of R & D support services are supplied to Principal
Investigators for their microgravity science projects, such as
payload hardware development, samples preparation and
certification, short duration microgravity parabolic flight
support, astronaut training, and payload operation and mission
control.
