A wide-angle Super Wide-i SeaCam® camera and 10,000-lumens LED SeaLite® are being used to observe AUV docking operations this month in Norwegian waters.
These units are integrated to a WiSub pinless underwater connector, which transfers electric power and data without the use of conductive pins, making the units field-retrievable and underwater systems easily reconfigurable.
Uncommon Technologies is proud to have delivered world-class underwater instrumentation from DeepSea Power & Light - Subsea Oceanographic for this innovative application. Best of success to Equinor and WiSub on the path of subsea automation!
Photo received yesterday from customer Equinor, of Fonn Observation System = underwater camera and light interfaced to wet-mateable 250W pinless underwater connector.
Connector pair and instrumentation are about to be deployed in the fjord, connected to the Equinor AUV ("UID") dock - the big yellow steel bit ;)
