Smart Light Devices, a subsea laser technology company represented in
the USA by ABTEL Universal Technology, Inc. is specialised in producing
advanced optical sensor technology for subsea inspection applications,
recently announced and launched the Miniature Camera (MC1), one of
the smallest subsea camera in the world, for underwater oil and gas inspection
applications.

Visual images are a key tool in the inspection of subsea oil and gas installations.
Existing subsea camera systems are however of limited use in applications
in difficult to reach areas, such as within the structure of an XT or within pipes,
etc., where the physical size of existing cameras greatly restrict their use.
The MC1 has been developed to meet such requirements based on industry
demand.

The miniature camera offers a high performance product at an affordable cost and combines superb sensitivity, resolution and dynamic versatility, allowing clients a variety of potential subsea applications.

In addition, to the development of the world’s smallest subsea camera, SLD has developed image enhancement software, where typical Gaussian associated noise or noise generated from the environment such as water turbidity could be removed when used in conjunction with the ITIS, the camera is able to capture useful images even in environments that are difficult for traditional SIT cameras.

SLD is proud to present this dramatic breakthrough miniature camera for the subsea inspection, and has already generated great interest by several major subsea companies which gives room for a new market. The smallest size ever assessable in oil and gas, it will allow inspections not previously assessable. The miniature camera will support an important unmet market need, giving the subsea oil and gas operators the most cost-effective level of technology without compromising the quality of inspection services required.
Features
