NEWS FROM LYYN®
Breakthrough for LYYN in the security industry
LYYN Hawk System

LYYN
Hawk System™

The real-time, 19” rack mounted, visibility enhancer solution for analog multi-camera systems .

Last week, LYYN delivered the first LYYN Hawk Systems to the Ontario Police Force in Canada and the Öresund Bridge Company in Sweden. LYYN’s technique for real-time video image enhancement will be used for traffic control in both cases.

“LYYN’s technique will enable us to monitor the traffic on the Öresund Bridge whatever the weather and lighting conditions,” says Johan Nord, System Manager Technical Operations, of the Öresund Bridge. “We’ve tested the technique for some time – the results were very good and we’re delighted that LYYN has developed a product that is compatible with our monitoring systems.”

”The response of the market to our unique real-time image enhancement technique continues to be positive, and today we have 400 satisfied users throughout the world. We’re very pleased that the Öresund Bridge and the Ontario Police have agreed to be our reference clients, as this will facilitate our breakthrough in this new market segment,” says Bengt Sahlberg, LYYN’s CEO.

It was also very pleasing to find so many presentations in the technical sessions that had references to LYYN and lyynification. It shows that lyynification is a well accepted and highly appreciated tool in the subsea industry.

Many thanks to all our partners and customers out there!

See you at the next show:

Strange fish has see-through head

A bizarre deep-water fish called the barreleye has a transparent head and tubular eyes.

Since the fish's discovery in 1939, biologists have known the eyes were very good at collecting light. But their shape seemed to leave the fish with tunnel vision.

Now scientists say the eyes rotate, allowing the barreleye to see directly forward or look upward through its transparent head. The barreleye (Macropinna microstoma) is adapted for life in a pitch-black environment of the deep sea, where sunlight does not reach. They use their ultra-sensitive tubular eyes to search for the faint silhouettes of prey overhead.
