Effective communication is crucial for the success of any underwater mission. However, traditional methods have been known to have limitations and challenges. The Delphis V3, developed by Succorfish in partnership with Newcastle University School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, is set to change that. The Delphis V3 is a miniature acoustic modem and transponder that allows for advanced communication between divers, underwater vehicles and subsea instruments. It is already being used by research institutes globally, in a wide range of fields including oceanography, marine biology, and subsea engineering, for various types of research and data collection.
The Delphis V3’s key feature is its ability to exchange data packets of up to 64 bytes between 256 uniquely addressable units using short-burst acoustic waves. This feature makes the device highly efficient in data and information exchange. Additionally, it’s low-power and compact design makes it easy to handle and transport. The Delphis V3 can be controlled using either a simple RS232 serial command protocol or a logic level UART interface (2.5V/3.3V).
The latest hardware revision of the Delphis V3 includes reduced receiver self-noise, which enhances the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and range in low to moderate sea states. This means that the device can function effectively even in challenging underwater environments. The device also includes protection for the power supply input against reverse polarity connection and switching transients, to ensure that the device is protected against short voltage spikes and power supply issues. This increases its reliability and durability.
Another useful feature of the Delphis V3 is its ability to exchange “ping” messages to measure range between units with sub-meter accuracy. This feature is especially useful in situations where precise distance measurement is required, such as in navigation or mapping applications. The Delphis V3 also offers an OEM option, allowing customers to integrate the device into their own products and systems and customise it to their specific needs and requirements.
Delphis V3 comes in an optimised new V2 enclosure with one mounting point, making it easy to install and secure in any underwater environment. The collaboration between Succorfish and Newcastle University School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering brings together expertise in underwater communication technology and engineering, resulting in a highly advanced and reliable device.
Research institutes around the world are using the Delphis V3 for a variety of underwater applications. In oceanography, for example, the device allows for real-time communication and data transfer between divers, underwater vehicles, and subsea instruments, enabling the collection of more accurate and detailed data on ocean currents, water temperatures, and other important oceanographic parameters. In marine biology, the Delphis V3 is used to communicate with submersibles and remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) that are studying marine life and ecosystems, and to transmit live video footage from these vehicles back to the surface. In subsea engineering, the Delphis V3 is used for communication and data transfer between divers, ROVs, and subsea structures, allowing for more efficient and effective maintenance and repair of these structures.
The Delphis V3 is also ideal for use by combat divers, providing them with secure and reliable communication while submerged. With its advanced features, ease of use, and reliability, the Delphis V3 is a game-changer for underwater communication, making it a must-have for any organisation or individual working in the field of underwater research or combat diving.
In conclusion, the Delphis V3 is a revolutionary underwater communication device that is changing the game for underwater research and exploration.
