The dedicated Cefas Electronics Design Unit has over twenty years experience in the design and development of novel miniature telemetry systems and dataloggers for fish, bird and animal monitoring applications.
We have world-renowned expertise in designing miniature, fully programmable data loggers. These contain an integrated range of sensors and transmitters that are sealed in packages capable of withstanding hostile environments.
We are experienced in:
- sophisticated high-resolution tracking systems for juvenile and adult fish and shellfish in marine and freshwater environments
- miniature devices suitable for tracking and monitoring the behaviour of animals in extreme and demanding environments
- an innovative range of radio, acoustic and archival tags
- technological expertise in the development of data storage tags and telemetry for free-swimming fish
- pioneering tag attachment techniques
- active sonar and acoustic buoy tracking equipment
- novel physical, physiological and biological sensors
- satellite communications facilities
- data analysis systems
Our development projects are conducted in multidisciplinary teams involving biologists, electronic engineers, software developers and commercial manufacturers. This ensures that systems fully meet research needs and can subsequently be reliably manufactured in large quantities.
