LYYN
Hawk System™
The real-time, 19” rack mounted, visibility enhancer solution for analog multi-camera systems . |
One viewer - many cameras
By installing it with a video switch (not provided by LYYN) it is possible to lyynify the whole system. The operator can choose and switch any camera through the unit, providing lyynification wherever it is needed.
Cost efficient
Instead of installing more enhanced cameras you only need one LYYN Hawk System per simultaneous viewing channel. A simple system upgrade bringing a powerful result to the whole system.
Single or dual channel
LYYN Hawk System comes in two different configurations, single or dual video channels. This means that you can save rack space and money if you need more than one simultaneous viewer in your system. |
Video standards
PAL 625-line 25 fps or NTSC 525-line 30 fps, auto sensing of format. Standard composite or S-video (separate luminance and chrominance), with BNC connectors.
Simple integration
LYYN Hawk System is controlled remotely. It can easily be integrated into operator consoles through four different control interfaces:
• RS 232
• USB 2.0
• Ethernet (RJ45) either using Telnet or internal web server

SEAMOR ROV was Inuktun's original product, developed over 17 years ago for the recreational boater market. Although the recreational market never materialized, the Seamor system was found to have many industrial uses. |
Later, Inuktun designed the ROV Seamor system with modern technology to provide better quality images, improved sensor integration, increased power and greater operational depth. Now, Seamor can incorporate devices such as Sonar, auxiliary video cameras, CP Proves, brush cleaning motors and manipulators, and operate at depths of up to 1,000 feet underwater.
This combination of depth capability, sensor integration and the standard zoom camera make Seamor a unique system in the market - no other systems combine this much capability into a single, portable system. In addition, unlike many other small ROVs, the Seamor vehicle is modular, allowing easy swap out of thrusters, camera modules, or the electronics control canister.
The Seamor ROVs have been currently manufactured by Seamor Marine Ltd. incorporated in December, 2006. [more] |

The steel car ferry Milwaukee sank in a Lake Michigan gale with all hands on October 22, 1929. At the time of it’s sinking it was a 338 foot long ferry carrying train cars and other goods across Lake Michigan. |

Watch the video on lyynified.com |
That trip is approximately 85 miles and is still done today. The sinking of the Milwaukee occurred in the early evenings hours following the ships departure into a Fall storm from the city of Milwaukee. The entire crew of 52 was lost when the boat sank only a few miles from its starting point.
In July 2008, VideoRay ROVs were used to explore this shipwreck which lies in 90 to 125 feet of water off the Wisconsin shoreline. The ROVs were able to explore the Milwaukee from end to end as well as entering several compartments.
