Latest ASTRALiTe News
Nov 22, 2018
At a nearby Reservoir in Colorado, ASTRALiTe integrated its 2-in-1 Topo-Bathy LiDAR System onto the DJI Matrice 600 Pro, one of the most widely used drones in the surveying market. Piloted by the drone professionals at Juniper Unmanned, the M600 was able to carry the 5 kg (11 lb.) payload with ease, while maintaining stability during two 15 minute flights. A second demonstration was conducted at high elevation in conjunction with the US Geological Survey (USGS) in Kremmling, CO at the confluence of the Colorado and Blue rivers. Four flights were conducted with flight times ranging between 10 – 12 min. River transects were made to document volume flow of the two rivers including depth profiles, vegetation mapping, and underwater object detection. A third set of demonstrations was conducted at the Applied Research Lab (ARL) MANTAS II 2018 Tech Demo at the University of Hawaii’s Institute of Marine Biology (HIMB) on Coconut Island. Over three days the LiDAR was put to the test on the windward side of the island in conditions that included salt spray and significant surf. The expert ARL staff piloted the Matrice 600 Pro masterfully in these conditions collecting near-shore bathymetry, dune, inlet and lagoon profiles, and mapping underwater coral reef structures at centimeter-level resolution. A total of seven flights were conducted, the longest being 17 min.

Subchem Systems is a company that received a Department of Defense SBIR/STTR grant for a project entitled: Compact, Lightweight Chemical Sensor for Underwater Explosive Ordnance (EOD) Application. The abstract given for this project is as follows: SubChem Systems Inc. has been involved in the further development, deployment and commercialization of autonomous in-situ chemical analyzers and custom engineered payloads since 1996. SubChem Analyzers have been deployed on commercial AUVs, coastal gliders, autonomous moored vertical profilers, fixed moored structures and other ocean observation platforms. The overall objective of this funding will be to provide a conceptual design of a Diver held chemical sensor capable of sensing chemical/explosive signatures focusing on nitro-based explosives. The requirements needed of the sensor for integration to the DHINS, HULS and BULS systems will also be documented. SubChem Systems maintains the expertise to provide an assessment of several chemical sensing techniques which may be applicable to the sensing of explosives underwater to be applied to the conceptual design. SubChem is currently developing a Miniature Chemical Sensor, ChemFIN, for the detection of trace levels of explosives and other target chemicals. This sensor couples a unique micro-fluidic technology providing a low cost, low power, and platform independent architecture. Funding from this Phase 1 effort will produce a conceptual adaptation to a Diver Held ChemFIN. This variant will incorporate an applicable sensing technology for localization and classification of nitrate-based (TNT,DNT) and potentially peroxide-based (TATP,HMTD) chemical/explosive mixtures.
