Nexvision, its system to avoid collisions between ships and cetaceans

These systems are integrated into the detection box of the SeaDetect project, which will also consist of a radar and a lidar.In addition to this detection box, acoustic monitoring buoys and a whale detection sharing application will be put in place to avoid collisions between ships and cetaceans. See the article published on nouvellespublications.com: Nexvision, […]

WP 2 – Cetacean’s detection onboard system: Specification, definition and implementation

The work package includes several tasks that will be developed together with the partners & stakeholders:  When surfacing, cetaceans in general have a relatively small signature due to their sizes and the small difference between their body temperature and the water temperature. The temporal persistence of this signature is also limited because whales surfacing times […]

Launch of a new collaborative project LIFE SeaDetect

🌊 ‘LIFE SeaDetect’ to develop and demonstrate innovative solutions to significantly reduce the risk of collisions between vessels, cetaceans & Unidentified Floating Objects (UFOs). Indeed, collisions between vessels and large cetaceans are the first reason for non-natural death for marine mammals that are currently listed as threatened in the IUCN Red List of endangered species. […]
