Deep Vision frame design upgrades

Deep Vision frame design upgrades

Aug 20, 2018 |

Experience from more than a hundred hauls with the Deep Vision prototype has resulted in powerful upgrades of the frame design. Read more about the final version of the system for marine research purposes.

– We have acquired extensive experience with the Deep Vision system after more than a hundred hauls with the prototype, mainly with the fleet of the Institute of Marine Research in Bergen. This puts us in a unique position to know which solutions work well and which ones we should develop further, explains Kristoffer Løvall, Development Engineer at Scantrol Deep Vision.

Løvall has supervised the upgrades of the frame design that has taken place over the past few years, resulting in the final version of the Deep Vision subsea frame for marine research purposes.

Some of the upgrades include:

  • Redesign of the frame from a relatively heavy design made of steel and plastic, with separate buoyancy elements, to a more robust “sandwich” construction made of fibreglass. The new frame construction is more stiff, less heavy and more durable.
  • New polyurethane fenders give enhanced protection of frame, independent of the orientation of the frame as it is hauled onboard the trawl slip.
  • Upgraded spare parts facilitate easier repair of the frame onboard the vessel, if necessary.
  • Redesign of “photo studio” for easier maintenance. The new studio can easily be substituted with newer versions or studios designed for other sampling purposes, such as different sizes of species.
  • Zippers on both sides of the frame enable quick and easy attachment of the frame to the trawl net.

 

ZIPPER ATTACHMENT: One of the features that have been upgraded is the attachment to the trawl net. A marine zipper is used to attach the frame to both ends of the trawl, making the process easier and more efficient.

ABOUT

Scantrol Deep Vision supplies innovative solutions for fish sampling - in the sea, onboard your vessel and in your lab. Deep Vision measures species, size and location of fish in the sea by help of a camera system mounted in the trawl. Sampling can be done without bringing the fish onboard your vessel. The FishMeter electronic fish measuring board ensures accurate and efficient sampling in rough environments onboard your vessel and in your lab.
