Press Releases
St. John's, Newfoundland – June 19, 2009 – Marport, a leading subsea acoustics technology company, announced today that its Software Defined Sonar® has been profiled in Marine Technology Reporter's Future Tech list.
Marine Technology Reporter is the world’s largest audited circulation magazine to cover the marine technology market. It’s become a highly regarded industry publication and acts as a resource guide for companies, government agencies, research institutions and universities seeking product and service providers.
Marport's Software Defined Sonar (SDS) technology replaces conventional, hardware-centric sonar systems with one common platform composed of programmable components that are controlled by software. With SDS technology, a single hardware platform handles many different sonar functions – the platform is easily reconfigured to change its specific function as needed. The technology improves sonar functionality, enhances signal processing and substantially reduces costs - all while replacing racks of legacy sonar equipment.
Karl Kenny, Marport’s President and CEO, says; "We’re delighted that Marine Technology Reporter has profiled our Software Defined Sonar in their Future Tech edition. SDS serves a wide variety of legacy sonar applications and can support rapid development and deployment of novel sonar solutions."
