seatooth®
seatooth® uses the latest in wireless technology to enable near-field transmission of data and power through-water, and highly accurate navigation.
Available as a standard sized modem, as a hybrid solution or in compact form, seatooth® transmits data, power and compressed video reliably in challenging environments where traditional underwater communications methods can suffer poor performance, such as in littoral or shallow waters, in congested environments (ports & harbours) or in water with high turbidity levels.
seatooth® signal can penetrate water, air, across the air/water interface and even through solid material (seabed, ground, harbour walls, ice) to allow two-way, reliable communications and data transfer at high data rates and with low latency.
Compact, low power radio modem. seatooth® S100 delivers communication and location data wirelessly through-water in a low power, compact form factor. Due to its compact size, ease of deployment and low power consumption, S100 is ideally suited for a wide variety of applications including radio frequency identification (RFID), remote sensing, networks and wireless SCADA applications.
High data rate, broadband link. seatooth® S300 transmits data, power and compressed video reliably in challenging environments at higher data rates. Applications include high speed data transfer between underwater sensors and unmanned underwater vehicles (ROVs and AUVs).
