SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Fixed Acoustic Sensors
ShorePicket® is an autonomous acoustic monitoring system perfect for complex port and near-shore maritime environments.
ShorePicket uses advanced linear hydrophone arrays and proprietary beam-forming to achieve effective acoustic intelligence and alerting in high-traffic acoustically cluttered environments. It deploys with a low profile that keeps navigable waterways free of obstruction and hazards.
Paired with ThayerMahan’s SeaGuard non-kinetic UUV defeat system, ShorePicket is a key component in a full detect-to-defeat chain.
