​Key Features & Benefits

• High resolution acoustic profiling
  Enables characterization of natural and anthropogenic sound sources, including marine mammal vocalizations and ambient noise variability.
• Autonomous, long duration operation
  Proven APEX float endurance supports remote and extended deployments with minimal maintenance.
• Mission configurable sampling
  Depth intervals, sampling duration, gain settings, and trigger thresholds can be tailored to specific research objectives and environments.
• Combined acoustic and environmental context
  Optional integration with CTD and other environmental sensors enables correlation of acoustic observations with oceanographic conditions.
• Broad deployment capability
  Supports open ocean, coastal, and under ice operations, extending monitoring into challenging or hard to reach regions.​
