Scripps Technical Forum

Sea-Bird Scientific will be on campus to host a Technical Forum to the SIO community.  In this session, optical experts, Cris Oricco, Program Manager, and Dave Stahlke, Technical Support, will guide participants through their optical portfolio, and help researchers better understand how Sea-Bird Scientific works within the science of optical oceanography.  We'll specifically look at the new LED AC-S, and how it can be used to understand the diversity of ocean life through harmful algal bloom analysis, carbon cycling, ocean color studies,…

Join our Scripps Corporate Alliance member Voyis for our October Scripps Technical Forum presentation - Wide Area Color Image Mapping Systems. 

When looking to collect quality data in underwater environments, we often encounter the dilemma of using equipment that will provide wide area coverage, or sensors that output detailed quantifiable results. Voyis has developed…

Marine surveys and inspections are undergoing a radical change. More and more remote operations and unmanned systems are being used to observe the ocean, collect data, and carry out crucial activities, often at a lower cost, increased safety, and reduced environmental impact. 

Join SubC Imaging Founder & Camera System Manager, Chad Collett, and VP of Software, Adam Rowe as they discuss and take your questions about the essential technologies being developed to support this shift for ocean sciences, offshore energy, and other maritime industries. …

Due to growing demand from the oceanographic research community, RBR has released pyRSKtools, an official, open-source data processing toolbox for Python. This technical session will provide a brief overview of the toolbox and an opportunity to discuss coding and data processing issues with an expert from RBR.

A Second Set of Eyes: cNODE Mantis Acoustic Modem

Speaker:
Jan-Erik Faugstadmo, Technical Advisor - Positioning and Communication, Kongsberg Maritime

Kongsberg has recently announced an exciting new addition to the cNODE product range of acoustic modems. cNODE Mantis provides a new capability to stream a live video feed for a variety of subsea applications with a quality of 420 x 380p at four frames per second. Having established itself over the years as an acoustic positioning system of unmatched reliability and robustness, the cNODE has set the…

How to Improve Your Underwater Photos & Video: A Guide for Oceanographers, Marine Biologists & Researchers

As an oceanographic scientist, researcher, or professional, it can be challenging to get vessel time for your project. Often one of the goals of a subsea project is to collect footage and images. You only get a short amount of time to collect the survey data, so being prepared is important. Join Chad Collett, Founder & CEO of SubC…

During this brown-bag seminar Dan Shropshire from Teledyne will present their latest and greatest Marine Vehicle technologies which enable Oceanographic research. He will provide a brief overview of gliders, profiling floats, AUVs, ASVs, and ROVs as well as applications that highlight oceanographic research done with these devices. Emphasis will be placed on the latest technologies which help enable these systems.
