Klein Selects Greensea Inertial Navigation
Klein Marine Systems chose Greensea Systems to provide SWaP-C optimized inertial navigation for its side scan sonar towfish products. The Greensea INSpect GS products use Greensea’s open architecture operating platform, OPENSEA, and a patent-pending heading alignment methodology.
“We chose the Greensea INSpect GS product family due to the price/performance alternatives offered as well as the additional sensor options that it supports,” said Dean Fleury, Director of Engineering for Klein. “The interface to the system is straightforward and the integration activities unfolded smoothly and quickly. The Greensea team was extremely responsive and their support during integration and test was exceptional. The incorporation of a subsystem with this broad range of sensor functions allows Klein Marine Systems to focus on our core competency, sonar imaging, knowing that we are continuously receiving high quality sensor data.”
“We are excited that Klein Marine chose Greensea as a navigation partner,” said Marybeth Gilliam, Greensea’s COO. “Our recent integration with their flagship product, the System 5900, is indicative of our strong commitment to support their success. We pushed ourselves to look for ways to trim costs without sacrificing performance and we were able to provide a customized solution that met their aggressive timeline.”
