SeapiX-F: how to balance efficiency and by-catch rules with advanced fishery acoustics
SeapiX-F is the first compact civilian system comprising a dual Steerable Mills Cross multi-beam sonar transducer. Its transducer generates several simultaneous multibeam transmissions and acoustic processes to yield quantitatively and qualitatively impressive measurements of the marine environment. SeapiX-F revolutionizes fishing techniques by providing optimally calibrated information and unparalleled surveillance of a designated underwater spatial volume. It answers some of the toughest demands placed on skippers, offering total visibility over the underwater environment so that informed, strategic fishing decisions can be made in real time thanks to realistic quantitative and qualitative distribution of biomass.

How to select the right INS?
When you need an Inertial Navigation System (INS), it is rather easy to specify the accuracy of the different parameters required, such as heading, roll, pitch, velocities or 3D position. However, an INS keeping this accuracy whatever the conditions encountered is what you really need for a successful mission. This is when it gets more difficult to select the INS that best fits your need. This webinar will provide you with some clues about the most difficult conditions during which INS performance can be altered. You will learn what questions you really need to ask INS manufacturers in order to get crucial performance information, even when those technical aspects are not displayed in datasheets.

How to select the right IMU?
Once you have designed your system and computed the required performance of the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) you need, it is time to select the one that best meets your requirements. But how to read an IMU datasheet? How to understand the verbiage of IMU manufacturers? This webinar will focus on the main parameters of the sensors that have been put together to build an IMU and will help you understand the different technical words and what they correspond to. And, last but not least, you will learn what key parameters you need to ask for when they are missing from IMU manufacturers datasheets.

Sparse LBL: How to enhance subsea positioning performance
Today, many subsea positioning techniques are available to operators. However, most of them require the use of many transponders and remain costly. While LBL is the preferred solution for highly accurate subsea positioning, Sparse-LBL is a more efficient, flexible and cost-effective method that uses a reduced number of transponders to achieve similar performance.
During this webinar, you'll discover how sparse LBL can make a difference to your subsea operations! Make sure to select one of our two sessions to learn more.
