Engineers from the Science Applications International Corp.

The hydrophone project, sponsored by the U.S. Naval Undersea Warfare Center in Newport, R.I., is based on SAIC Maritime`s Bi-Directional Fiber Optic Telemetry acoustic nodes, and is to help researchers communicate with submarines, torpedoes, and other underwater vehicles and targets during training and testing exercises. Researchers will be able to transmit signals from the underwater sensors directly to a range operation center without additional relays through additional sites. - J.K.
