Products Seatronics, CodaOctopus Agree Seatronics do Brazil, an Acteon com- pany, was appointed the exclusive distributor for CodaOctopus Ltd. in Brazil, a decision that will widen the portfolio of specialist subsea marine equipment that it can now offer to the Brazilian market. The new partner- ship will enable Seatronics, as a global supplier of electronic subsea equipment, to provide its offshore construction and survey customers with leading 3D echoscope real-time sonar, F180 inertial positioning and motion sensing and digital data acquisition and geophysical data pro-cessing technologies. A major beneÞ t for SeatronicsÕ Brazilian ROV and survey customers will be the access to unique 3D imaging capabilities, especially where real-time visualiza-tion is required at depth.www.seatronics-group.com www.codaoctopus.com Sea Catch Spring Safety Pin Sea Catch quick releases can now be Þ tted with a Spring Safety Pin (SSP) that allows users to eject the pin from a distance and do so using the release lanyard. The Þ rst pull on the lanyard removes the R-clip from the pin and a compression spring ejects the pin which is Þ rmly tethered to the body. The second pull activates the release lever to release the object or item un- der load. This option is most useful on models TR3 to TR10. McMillan Design, Inc.www.seacatch.com Shark Eye The Shark Eye was developed by Shark Marine to solve a common problem faced by many EOD / SAR teams, poor visibility. The Shark Eye allows divers to see objects and conduct detailed visual inspections at armÕs reach even in turbid/dark water, eliminating the need for the diver to press their mask against what could be explosive or hazardous material. The Shark Eye consists of a head mounted display, battery pack and a camera with hand held mount. It al-lows divers to perform visual inspec- tions in areas that are hard to access without having to place their entire bodies inside.www.sharkmarine.com CTI SonarWiz UpdateChesapeakeTechnology announced an advancement to its SonarWiz soft- ware with the addition of post-processing for multi-beam echo sounder and interferometric bathymetry systems. SonarWiz now offers data pro- cessing for both multi-beam and interferometric bathymetric systems with present support for processing bathymetry Þ le types of ALL, HSX, JSF, R2S, RDF, S7K, SXI, and XTF. SonarWiz is the software that streamlined the processing of sidescan sonar, sub-bottom proÞ ler and magnetometer data and now with the new bathymetric processing capability, brings togeth- er the data from these different geophysical sensors in one uniÞ ed work- space. SonarWiz Bathy reads the native data formats directly and gives the user all the tools required to view and edit the bathymetric data to produce high resolution maps and reports. By integrating the processed bathymetry data with sidescan sonar data, stunning 3D sidescan sonar mosaics can be generated giving a whole new visual dimension to seaß oor data. www.chesapeaketech.com October 201354 MTRMTR #8 (50-64).indd 54MTR #8 (50-64).indd 5410/15/2013 9:59:49 AM10/15/2013 9:59:49 AM
