R.M. Young Company Launches Re-Engineered SNOdar Snow Depth Sensor
snowfall, when reliable data is needed most. Across environmental monitoring, infrastructure management and public safety, accurate snow depth data is a critical operational input. Obtaining that data reliably during active storm conditions has long presented a technical challenge. Most snow depth sensors rely on ultrasonic technology, which is susceptible to signal degradation in falling snow. SNOdar uses LIDAR, Light Detection and Ranging, to provide continuous, accurate measurement even in the middle of a snowstorm. R.M. Young Company, a manufacturer of professional meteorological

Vicinay Marine, Tecnalia Develop Remote Offshore Mooring Corrosion Sensor
Vicinay Marine and Spanish applied research center Tecnalia have jointly developed a sensor designed to remotely monitor corrosion on offshore mooring lines, aiming to improve the safety, reliability and service life of offshore systems.The companies said the sensor uses electrical resistance measurements to quantify section loss in mooring components in real time, model degradation trends and predict remaining service life.The technology is targeted at offshore wind farms and other floating offshore systems, where corrosion remains a key challenge affecting the integrity and durability of chains and
Teledyne Participates in 2026 SeaSEC Challenge Weeks: DATA2SEA
Teledyne is participating in the 2026 edition of the SeaSEC Challenge Weeks, “DATA2SEA” (SCWD2S), an advanced maritime security exercise focused on real-time multi-sensor data integration for the protection of critical underwater infrastructure (CUI). In collaboration with the German Navy and hosted by the Rostock Institute for Ocean Technologies, this year’s DATA2SEA program brings together a range of sensing technologies in realistic operational conditions to explore how real-time data integration can enhance maritime security operations. The exercise shifts the focus beyond
DOF Selects Kongsberg Listen for HUGIN AUV Survey Platform
technology that complements acoustic survey tools by providing additional insight into subsea environments. Applications include pipeline inspection with cathodic protection evaluation, marine mineral exploration and buried cable positioning.The HUGIN platform is designed to collect data from multiple sensors simultaneously, enabling operators to gather geophysical datasets from a single survey mission.Kongsberg Listen was launched earlier this year following Kongsberg Discovery’s acquisition and further development of electromagnetic sensing technology originally developed by Argeo.“HUGIN
Inertial Sensor From Silicon Sensing Supports New Navigation Device
Silicon Sensing Systems Ltd's inertial sensor technology is central to a new north-finding navigation device recently unveiled by Kongsberg Discovery AS and set to be demonstrated at Oceanology International this month.In June 2025, the two companies announced they had signed a co-operation agreement to develop a new generation of inertial products. This is the first development to emerge from this cooperation.Market requirements for north-seeking gyroscopes increasingly demand low size, weight, power and cost (SWaP-C). The combination of Silicon Sensing’s micro electro-mechanical systems
