As a stainless steel framed platform of cameras, lights, and sensors, Seirios operates from the NOAA ship Okeanos Explorer (R337) along with the ROV Deep Discoverer. Attached to the ship by the electro-optical-mechanical 0.68 cable, Seirios carries an articulated HD camera and six 400W HMI lights for video production and improved lighting for D2. Fore and aft lateral thrusters enable Seirios to turn 360 degrees to maintain illumination in a desired direction. Seirios can also move laterally, within the constraints of the its cable. With the ROV attached by a 30m neutrally buoyant tether, one significant reason for utilizing Seirios in this two-body configuration is to decouple Deep Discoverer from the ship's motion. A suite of sensors provide real-time measurements of conductivity, temperature, depth, pressure, and more transmitted through high speed fiber optic communications. sponsor: xlink: https://data.noaa.gov//docucomp/aea985b0-968f-11e0-aa80-0800200c9a66 title: NOAA/OAR/OER Ocean Exploration and Research (owner) sponsor: xlink: https://data.noaa.gov//docucomp/99fd1600-e1fd-11df-85ca-0800200c9a66 title: NOAA/OAR/OER Ocean Exploration and Research (custodian) sponsor: xlink: https://data.noaa.gov//docucomp/ED9AF398-D6CF-A63A-D75D527D366248F3 title: NOAA/OAR/OER Ocean Exploration and Research (resource provider) sponsor: xlink: https://data.noaa.gov//docucomp/08D95C427FB128479945893256DADE37 title: NOAA/OAR/OER - Ocean Exploration and Research (POC) instrument: xlink: https://data.noaa.gov//docucomp/dd62f610-69cc-11e0-ae3e-0800200c9a66 title: Insite Pacific Zeus Plus HDTV Color Zoom Camera instrument: xlink: https://data.noaa.gov//docucomp/89dfbb50-69d0-11e0-ae3e-0800200c9a66 title: Insite Pacific Cyclops Super Wide Angle Camera instrument: xlink: https://data.noaa.gov//docucomp/ba20baf0-338d-11e4-8c21-0800200c9a66 title: Insite Nova Camera instrument: xlink: https://data.noaa.gov//docucomp/45080730-69c6-11e0-ae3e-0800200c9a66 title: SeaBird SBE-911 Plus CTD with Dissolved Oxygen Sensor instrument: xlink: https://data.noaa.gov//docucomp/33e19fa0-338c-11e4-8c21-0800200c9a66 title: Insite Titan Tilt and Rotate Color Zoom Camera |
