Lightning Strike Predictor
An early warning system for potential lightning strikes for use in locations such as a sailboat at sea. The sensor may be coupled with protective systems to disconnect electronics and shunt lightning-caused currents to the ground. Additionally, the sensor may also be used to activate warning systems. Background: Safety at sea is on the mind of every...

CHANOS Marine Carbonate Detection
­The Channelized Optical System (CHANOS) II is an autonomous, in situ sensor capable of measuring seawater dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and pH simultaneously in high frequency (up to ~1 Hz). Built on the original CHANOS technology, CHANOS II uses similar spectrophotometric principles to make both DIC and pH measurements with fast detection response...

Wave Inertial Measurement Sensor (WIMS)
The Wave Inertial Measurement Sensor (WIMS) is a low-cost, low-power consumption device measuring wave motion, height, period, and direction. Composed of an IMU, activator, and digital controller, WIMS can easily be incorporated in or on marine floats - connecting to the float's power source, positioning mechanism, and communications source. Additionally,...

Improved Marine Profiler
­The Improved Marine Profiler enables longer deployment times and significantly improved data. This low-drag, flow-aligning profiler pivots both horizontally and vertically to orient with the incident current flow to minimize drag. By naturally orienting into the surrounding current flow, the new design also improves the data quality from sensors...
