Our Solutions
Enhanced Underwater Sensing
By adding hydrophones every 1km, our underwater security system enables the detection of fast-moving vessels and active sensors, providing comprehensive underwater monitoring.
Integrated Data Analysis via Partners
Our underwater security system merges below-water data with above-water sources, providing a comprehensive view of the maritime environment. Our partners can efficiently interpret this data, leading to more accurate insights and informed decision-making.
Versatile Offshore Deployment Capabilities
Our underwater security solution is versatile and can be applied in a range of scenarios, including port approaches, critical asset zones, pipeline and cable areas, as well as offshore regions.
Zoned Precision
Navigating the vast maritime frontier requires a system that operates seamlessly across different ranges. At OPTICS11, we’ve structured our approach into distinct zones to ensure unmatched precision at every turn. In Zone 1, spanning up to 6 km, we prioritize real-time threat tracking and identification via high-fidelity acoustic fingerprinting. Zone 2, reaching up to 30 km, is calibrated for broad-spectrum detection and tracking of Category 2 & 3 threats. Beyond that, Zone 3 stretches over 100 km, still maintaining impeccable detection of Category 3 threats. Be it divers, UUVs, submarines, surface vessels, or MCM-drones, OPTICS11 guarantees unwavering protection for your maritime assets across every zone.
Sensitivity
Optic-Fiber Technology
Compared to their electric counterparts and DAS (Distributed Acoustic Sensing), our optic-fiber sensors offer a multitude of advantages, including extended range, robust durability, immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMC immunity to EMI), and a compact design.
These sensors are engineered for heightened sensitivity, effectively resisting corrosive liquids and short circuits to ensure reliable, interference-free performance even in challenging environments. Their low noise level is further illustrated in the accompanying ‘Detection Threshold’ chart, which visually demonstrates their superior performance in terms of sensitivity and detection capabilities compared to traditional sensing technologies.
This chart emphasizes the effectiveness of Optics11’s technology in delivering precise and dependable data, even in scenarios where other systems might fail due to environmental constraints or electromagnetic interference.
