Technology

AI-enabled hardware for monitoring, security and insights

OIS's Lattice devices combine low-power sensors, edge processing—including machine learning and AI—battery management for extended operating life, and multi-technology wireless communications. Local processing turns sensor measurements into useful information while reducing communications and power requirements.

We deliver wireless topside-to-seabed solutions using LCT magnetic links and hybrid subsea communications, with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 4G and LoRaWAN providing above-water connectivity to suit each installation's backhaul requirements.

Our end-to-end solutions deliver multi-parameter information from subsea sensing hardware to live digital twins, enabling field-wide monitoring of asset integrity, operating conditions, the environment and security.

Loosely coupled transformers (LCT) communications and location

Lattice uses loosely coupled transformer (LCT) magnetic links to exchange information wirelessly between subsea devices and fixed or mobile gateways. Positioning uses magnetic measurements to estimate an AUV's position relative to a seabed Lattice device. This capability is being developed to provide corrections to the AUV's inertial navigation system (INS).

Magnetic underwater communications link

Low-power sensing and integration

OIS designs and integrates sensors for the monitoring task. Sensor selection, sampling schedules and battery management are matched to the required measurements and deployment duration.

Edge intelligence processing subsea sensor information

Edge processing, ML and AI

Lattice devices process and store measurements locally. Algorithms—including machine learning and AI—identify patterns and events and select useful information for transmission.

Autonomous underwater vehicle recovering subsea information

Multi-technology communications

Subsea links and above-water connectivity are combined to suit the installation. LCT magnetic links, hybrid communications, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 4G and LoRaWAN connect sensing devices with monitoring systems and live digital twins.
