DEFENSEA CONSULTORIA ATTENDED OCEANS 2014 IN ST. JOHNS, CANADA


A representative of DefenSea Consultoria attended Oceans 2014 in St. Johns, Canada, September 14th to 19th. This event occurs annually and brings together oceans scholars and researchers, as well as the main industries linked to the scientific research of the seas.
During the lectures, there were presented papers on design and performance of gliders, AUV underwater navigation, synthetic aperture sonars and underwater communication networks, among others.
Additionally, we had meetings with a number of partner companies, such as: MetOcean, manufacturer of oceanographic monitoring buoys and beacons; JouBeh, manufacturer of communication and tracking systems based on Iridium technology; Kraken Sonar Systems, manufacturer of synthetic aperture sonars; GeoSpectrum, which designs and manufactures acoustic transducers; ISE – International Submarine Engineering – one of the leading manufacturers of AUV and ROV; Hawbolt Industries, specialized in the design and construction of ROV umbilical winches and AUV launch and recovery systems; OceanWorks; a company that manufactured the submarine rescue system currently employed by the USN; Rockland Scientific, whose specialty is the design and construction of profilers for measuring turbulence; and the EMO Marine Technologies, that designs video/data fiber optic multiplexers appropriate for many marine and subsea applications.
Later, we traveled to Halifax to visit the VTS Control Center of the Canadian Coast Guard, and to meet with our partners at VMT – Virtual Marine Technologies – manufacturer of simulators for lifeboats in offshore platforms.
