MicroTriton
100W
Long-Term Sensing and Monitoring
The demand for accurate, real-time, high-density ocean data to enable the Blue Economy, scientific work, and national security needs, is leading to the need for many more ocean observation and monitoring systems to be deployed worldwide.
These systems are frequently reliant on non-rechargeable batteries, resulting in high maintenance costs and providing limits on available power. This in-turn often imposes limits on achievable sampling rates, lengths of deployment, and data resolution, eliminating many exciting future applications, such as recharging resident autonomous vehicles. Harvesting energy from ocean waves can solve these challenges.
Oscilla Power Inc. (OPI) addresses a key need to power
sensor platforms using energy from the ocean. The MicroTriton has a class leading efficiency and is adept at capturing energy from waves in low and moderately energetic environments.
MicroTriton will enable a significant quantity of high-quality, high-density, real-time ocean data, helping to protect marine and coastal ecosystems, monitor environmental change and aid maritime security.
THE MICROTRITON WAS DESIGNED FOR POWER & EFFICIENCY
MicroTriton was designed with many features which will allow
for quick deployment and low maintenance. Capabilities include but no limited to, monitoring, satellite communications, onboard battery storage, deployable with A-frame crane, single point mooring, platform agnosticism, and optional solar panels. This can work with a variety of payloads defined by our customers.
