Here are a few examples of the projects to which we
have contributed.
At right is an ocean floor tripod used by the
USGS
to study
sediment transport in areas of high current including San
Francisco Bay and the Colorado River. Penscil developed
a PC/104 system to control and acquire data from a sector scanning
sonar mounted in the center.
At left is the wet end of SLOSEA's
Chorro Creek water quality monitoring station, located in the
Morro Bay Estuary. This and other stations were integrated and
installed by Penscil. Penscil has contributed on many levels
to the SLOSEA program.
Shown at right is the midnight deployment of a broadband
single beam sonar used by
Scientific Fishery Systems
to detect and classify the rising alewives in Lake Michigan.
Penscil provided system design & integration and custom
software development for the adaptation of a broadband ADCP to
this fisheries application.
Penscil developed digital sensor and data acquisition system electronics,
software and documentation for the
USGS Coastal and Marine Geology
settling tube sediment analysis system shown at left. The settling tubes
measure the sediment size distribution for sand-sized samples using Stoke's Law for
particle settling to determine equivalent spherical settling velocity.
We provide
instant productivity
to critical projects.
