Transferring information (data, voice, and video) from offshore platform to onshore facilities, control station that keeps the capability to send maintenance or emergency crew is essential in E-Navigation system. Although with current technology, several means allow achieving the transmission tasks, marine range frequencies that rely much on line of sight between sender and receiver make positioning devices to determine the location of an object in space appear even indispensable.

Taking the critical maritime application as an example:

In the presence of sea and wind clutters, steering vessels appear to be a big challenge requiring assistance of a myriad of apparatus to ensure the safety in navigation.

Closed Circuit TV that tolerates harsh environmental conditions is frequently applied in many maritime platforms. They may be connected to an anti-intrusion surveillance system for entire monitoring management. The cameras must be equipped with pan, tilt and zoom capability to capture real-time images from all directions. In order to better detect targets or obstacles under low visibility, solid state radars which measure distance and bearing via microwave, are widely constructed with a turning pedestal. Being upgraded to scanners by positioning system, the radars become capable to conduct cruise, sweep and tracking tasks with the presets and position feedback function to obtain comprehensive situations around the water surface for collision avoidance and safe navigation. Operators can therefore stay in command in central control room to get real-time and useful video transmission signals.

Furthermore, viewing the global data revolution, to improve the safety and well-being in the maritime industry, there exist a growing number of antennas, based on LTE technology and satellite communication, being applied to vessels. Since microwave is directional and limited in its coverage, positioning system enables antennas to transmit and receive information of any nature efficiently by turning them towards the expected directions.

LonTrend Pan & Tilt Positioners (LTPM Series) are adaptive systems that accommodate various sensors with scalable features to fulfill maximum applications. LTPM10, equipped with the absolute position feedback function and in-built with 128 effective presets, the device supports tiny adjustable rotation angle of 0.015°/s hence ensures high accuracy performance facing at a very strong windy condition in maritime.

Committing itself to providing high-efficiency and ultra-compatibility Pan & Tilt Positioners, LonTrend encourages any OEM/ODM business collaboration requiring appointed specifications. LonTrend weatherproof camera housings and pan & tilt units, which have been verified in various field trials, are reliable instruments satisfying the most stringent surveillance requirements.
