Effective swimmer & diver detection, sensing of remote operated vehicles (ROV) approach and other underwater threats has become a concern for protecting vital infrastructure components, such as harbor facilities, ferry terminals, nuclear power plants, off-shore oil drilling platforms and terminals, cruise liners, domestic water supplies, airports and other strategic assets located on or surrounded by water. The integrated functions of swimmer detection, hailing and non-lethal deterrent is an industry first, and offers a comprehensive solution to dealing with sub-surface threats. In addition to the existing detection function, NuvoSonic is developing the capability warn intruders through audio signals transmitted under water, and, in the event that the warnings are not heeded, to issue a strong signal focused on the intruders that, as a non-lethal deterrent, temporarily incapacitate the offending intruder.

All other commercially available sonar solutions have insufficient range to allow a measured reaction to a potential underwater threat. NuvoSonic's SeaScout^TM, using patented PASER^TM technology, breaks this barrier, and offers long range detection and identification of swimmers, divers and submersible swimmer delivery vehicles at effective ranges of up to 10 times greater than competitive products.

Every owner and manager of strategic assets vulnerable to terrorist activities have gone to great lengths to implement protective measures. With the SeaScout^TM, NuvoSonic finally provides the first effective solution to underwater threats.

NuvoSonic's PASER^TM technology, with its unique electronic beamsteering, has the ability to detect, track, warn, and deter underwater threats in shallow water environments.

NuvoSonic has developed a suite of products that allow securing of a large area around objects surrounded by water, sonar barriers that allow monitoring of choke points, and a diver navigation system that allows precise threat interception.
