SBIR Phase II: Advanced Unified Oceanographic Data Logger

该SBIR第二阶段研究项目旨在完成一个完全特征化的商业原型高级统一海洋数据记录仪（AUDL）的开发。该系统旨在为现有和未来的海洋学应用中的独立数据记录提供一个新的商业标准。同样的技术也将在更大的陆地环境监测市场中提供同类最佳的性能。一个关键的特点是，奥迪将提供一个几乎通用的传感器接口。它将透明地记录来自模拟、串行异步和数字传感器和仪器的数据。这将使GEOSense能够通过单一的低成本系统，针对更广泛的应用和客户。GEOSense将提供一种商业解决方案，大大降低许多研究和工程应用中的技术数据采集成本。通过降低数据记录的总成本，预计该技术将从有限的研究资金中提高科学回报和教育机会。希望这项技术的广泛应用将扩大海洋学仪器方面的专门知识范围。

This SBIR Phase II research project aims to complete the development of a fully-characterized, commercial prototype, Advanced Unified Oceanographic Data Logger (AUDL). This system aims to provide a new commercial standard for standalone data recording within existing and future oceanographic applications. The same technology will also provide best-in-class performance within the larger markets of terrestrial environmental monitoring. One key feature is that the AUDL will provide a nearly universal sensor interface. It will record data transparently from analog, serial-asynchronous, and digital sensors and instruments. This will enable GEOSense to target a wider range of applications and customers, with a single, low-cost system. GEOSense will provide a commercial solution that significantly lowers the cost of technical data acquisition within a number of research and engineering applications. By reducing the overall cost of data recording, it is expected that the technology will enhance both the scientific return, and the educational opportunities, from limited research funds. It is hoped that the widespread application of this technology will increase the scope of expertise in oceanographic instrumentation.
