Underwater Acoustic Monitoring
Different applications of acoustics monitoring
Predict and prevent underwater acoustics from a dashboard
Detect and identify the marine mammals to prevent the impacts of human activities
Remote Monitoring
PAM systems can be deployed in remote or inaccessible marine environments, allowing researchers to gather data from locations that are difficult or unsafe to reach by traditional means.
Species Identification
PAM systems can identify specific marine mammal species present in an area, providing crucial information for implementing species-specific conservation measures and mitigating impacts.
Noise Pollution
PAM can quantify and analyze underwater noise pollution generated by human activities, helping to identify sources and assess their impact on marine mammal communication, feeding, and mating behaviors.
A patended technology to record the underwater noises
Broadband hydrophones mounted on PAM buoys can detect the entire frequency range of marine mammal sounds, including those from common porpoises and dolphins.
Our patented PAM buoy is an innovative tool designed for advanced marine research and conservation.
This state-of-the-art buoy boasts three key patented features:
1
An interface for interaction between humans, machines, and marine mammals via aerial and underwater signals.
2
Capabilities for the detection, identification, and localization of marine mammals.
3
A device that reduces the impact of underwater noise pollution from human activities.
Together, these patents highlight our commitment to enhancing marine ecosystem sustainability and protecting marine life.
PAM BUOY
Sinay can do the provision of the PAM buoy, the mob / demob and the maintenance during the operation phases.
This system allows:
- Detecting the presence of marine mammals. Particularly porpoises, which use wideband hydrophones tailored to high-frequency emissions.
- Measuring ambient noise levels and frequencies. Before and/or during construction work without risking hydrophone saturation (data acquisition for establishing a baseline state and construction phase monitoring.)
- Providing real-time alerts:
– To report the presence of marine mammals
– Indicate threshold exceedances (Temporary Threshold Shift and Permanent Threshold Shift according to 4 groups of marine mammals based on their specific sensitivity).
– Alert on threshold exceedances in the presence of marine mammals. - Offering a comprehensive dashboard for:
– Real-time alert logs
– Weekly report summaries
– Reports on frequency analysis and baseline.reference phase and construction phase studies
Passive acoustic monitoring methodology
Eco-intelligence of the solution
We offer a comprehensive methodology for environmental surveillance through Passive Acoustics.

Underwater Noise Module
Predict and prevent underwater acoustics
Harmful underwater noise arises from various human activities such as piling for oil and gas, construction, shipping (including ship sounds and engine noise), port activities, military sonars, and seabed excavation. This type of noise, known as “anthropogenic noise,” can be monitored and predicted to mitigate its impact and bring it to safer levels. Additionally, detecting marine mammals within the monitored areas allows for generating alerts, aiding in informed decision-making processes. Thanks to our module it becomes easy to monitor from your dashboard.
