New Software from EIVA

EIVA released NaviSuite Work? ow Manager for automatic data processing of large amounts of subsea data, with minimum human involvement. With the Work? ow Manager, repetitive tasks are automated and executed in paral- lel by the software. The ? rst performance measurements on real-life opera- tions data and work? ow setups have shown positive results, with 50 hours of

Eiva data processed in less than 2 hours. This is 25 times faster than other, typical data processing setups, where the industry has been satis? ed with being able nke Instrumentation to process 1:1, that is, process one hour of data in one hour. www.eiva.com nke Instrumentation SAMBAT nke instrumentation’s SAMBAT multiparameter probe offers three use modes: autonomous, integrated systems and tele transmission. In autono- mous mode, the SAMBAT probe can measure and record physicochemi- cal water parameters up to year-long deployments. In integrated mode, the

SAMBAT probe can be implemented to any carrier, data-buoy or seabed platform and interact with users central automat. In tele-transmission mode, thanks to a simple cable and a robust submersible GPS/communication an- tenna, user can parameter min and max alerts threshold for real time surveil- lance and automatic alerts. www.nke-instrumentation.com nke Instrumentation

SMD Subsea

Mining Prototype

As part of a project partially funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program, Soil

Machine Dynamics Ltd (SMD) and its partners in the VAMOS (viable alterna- tive mine operating system) Consor- tium have designed, built and tested a prototype robotic underwater mining vehicle with launch and recovery tech- nology that aims to help uncover valu- able European underwater mineral re- sources. After the ? rst round of testing, the system will be transported from the

U.K. to the second test site in Bosnia and Herzegovina in spring 2018.
