Abstract:
A real-time metocean sensor array system may include a one or more floating instruments each including geolocation capabilities and connected to a satellite communication network. In some examples, the floating instruments may further include an omnidirectional hydrophone. Motion and acoustical data gathered by the instruments may be converted by onboard processing logic into wave, current, and/or wind-related observations that may be communicated in real time and analyzed via a cloud-based system.

Claim (Index 1):
A floatable metocean instrument comprising:\n a hull having a central cavity, the hull including:\n a symmetrical lower portion extending downward from a midsection of the hull, configured to be submerged when the instrument is deployed in a body of water and to provide a uniform directional response to surface currents and surface waves, and \n a polygonal upper portion extending upward from the midsection of the hull and including a plurality of ribs extending upward from the midsection to define a plurality of substantially planar angled faces; \n a plurality of solar panels, each disposed on a respective one of the angled faces of the hull; and an electronics box removably disposed within the central cavity of the hull, the electronics box having a body portion defining an interior enclosure which contains:\n a global positioning system (GPS) receiver, \n a satellite transceiver, and \n a power regulating circuit configured to charge a battery using energy collected by the solar panels; and \n a battery configured to receive power from the power regulating circuit and to supply power to the GPS receiver and the satellite transceiver; \n wherein the GPS receiver is configured to measure positions of the instrument in real time, and the satellite transceiver is configured to transmit information based on the positions of the instrument to a satellite.
