The integration of LUMA FLEX technology into RBR’s instruments empowers users to efficiently collect large volumes of data wirelessly using AUVs and ROVs, supporting the rapidly expanding ocean economy. This collaboration underscores both companies’ commitment to advancing underwater data acquisition and analysis, enhancing the capabilities of industries reliant on subsea infrastructure and government agencies in monitoring underwater environments.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with Hydromea, integrating their miniature LUMA FLEX technology into our instruments,” said Greg Johnson, President of RBR. “This partnership not only elevates our offerings but also sets a new standard for wireless subsea data transmission, enabling more efficient and informed decision-making across various sectors.”
“Hydromea is excited to see our LUMA technology being adopted by RBR, a renowned leader in oceanographic solutions,” added Igor Martin, CEO of Hydromea. “Together, we are unlocking the full potential of underwater data harvesting, providing critical insights that will drive innovation, security, and sustainability in the ocean economy.”
To showcase this innovative integration, Hydromea will host a dock demo at Ocean Business in Southampton (April 8-10, 2025), offering attendees a firsthand look at the capabilities of the LUMA FLEX-enabled RBRconcerto3 CTD, wirelessly transmitting conductivity, temperature, and depth data from Southampton dock. The demo will run daily throughout the event, providing an opportunity for industry professionals to experience live subsea data collection from a submerged sensor with data harvested wirelessly by Hydromea’s EXRAY™ ROV.
