Real Time Sound Monitoring (RTSM)
Real Time Sound Monitoring (RTSM)

Real-Time Sound Measurement Buoy

A remote monitoring system that can collect, measure, process and transmit noise monitoring data in real-time.

Applications

  • Monitoring of offshore pile driving noise
  • Real time monitoring of compliance with noise limits
  • Live management of acoustic emissions during piling

Our RTSM buoy is a lightweight, compact, and scalable option for noise monitoring, using a hydrophone deployed beneath the buoy to enable seamless setup, management, and real-time data collection. It provides real-time sound levels and acoustic metrics, helping to reduce reporting turnaround times, while onboard computation and analysis allow for efficient identification of sound sources. The system also minimizes the need for offshore personnel and features a user-friendly dashboard with cloud storage capabilities, as well as onboard archiving of unprocessed recordings. Its lightweight and compact design makes it easy to stow and deploy.
