BlueView Helps Protect US Ports
BlueView Technologies is to deliver its 2D Imaging Sonar systems to VideoRay as part of an advanced underwater technology system by the Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office (CTTSO) to modernise the United States Coast Guard's (USCG) Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) fleet. The USD2.2 million contract awarded to VideoRay will update all USCG VideoRay ROVs including sonar, an improved non-acoustic navigation system, video enhancement, advanced ship hull inspection capabilities and other improvements to expand their role and work in challenging conditions.
VideoRay ROVs outfitted with BlueView 2D Imaging Sonar have been used to inspect ship hulls, piers, and bridges for explosive devices, help direct divers, recover evidence, and to inspect targets and areas before deploying divers.
"Our selection in VideoRay's contract award represents a milestone achievement for BlueView, and we take special pride in becoming a standard tool for the United States Coast Guard," stated Lee Thompson, BlueView Technologies CEO/CTO.
