Dyena product proves popular
The UK’s Dyena can add another customer to its list of users of its motion recorder, the Vessel Monitoring System (VMS).
The latest customer for the unit is Formula 1’s Eddie Jordan for his new Sunseeker 155 yacht.
Dyena’s unit stores up to 10 years of data, providing the operator with a detailed record of any structural events, as well as permanent log of the vessel’s use and operating characteristics.
Speaking of the VMS, Mr Jordan said: “Recording speed, roll, pitch and G forces gives the crew visibility of the sea and ensures that safety and comfort are always paramount.”
Sampling at 2,400 times per second, the VMS continuously monitors the shock and vibrations received by the vessel structure and stores the data to the onboard solid state memory, alongside position, speed, heading and time.
This data can then be examined at any time for the details surrounding any incidents, or to provide the owner with a record of operations.
Other users of Dyena systems include the RNLI, the UK Royal Navy, US Navy and the US Department of Homeland Security.
