Testing ultrasonic antifouling scientifically by counting mussel spat
We build a test set-up for ultrasonic antifouling. We count and measure the algae larvae. The figures prove that our antifouling is highly

Our research and development
Shipsonic is constantly working on optimising every application. We don't do this alone. We work together with organisations and companies such as NIOZ and the well know Norwegian Cruise company Hurtigruten. In addition, we ourselves are actively looking for knowledge partners and at the same time we are open to client participation.
Focal points
Shipsonic spends a lot of effort on Research and Development, specifically aimed at heavy duty, commercial applications. R&D has concentrated on:
-
Robust and reliable control units. To make sure crew will not have to repair our systems at the high seas, we offer failsafe electronics, where all components stay within 75% of maximum allowed temperature. Our modular design ensures that individual components can be swapped without having to replace entire systems.
-
High powered transducers with optimally designed housing and the correct frequency range. Our transducers are 80, 100 or 120 Watt.
-
Acoustic analysis for system design. Shipsonic has developed a Digital Signal Processor coupled to either a magnetic ultasonic microphone or a ultrasonic hydrophone. We combine this with temporarily (removable) installed transducers which allows us to do in-situ analysis of ultrasonic sound pressure to optimize the design of your system.
