For tracking at multiple scales of observation and environments. Compatible with MAP, SRX and Rcode Acoustic receiving systems

As in other areas of fish and wildlife monitoring, Lotek is continuously expanding the boundaries of acoustic telemetry with a range of innovative options, including transmitters that combined multiple technologies for use in multiple habitats.

Multi-mode technology provides the means to track animals throughout a variety of applications or environments that may not be compatible with a single technology.

With the sensor option (motion, temperature, pressure), one can monitor fish depth, temperature and mobile state.

  • Compatible with multiple acoustic receiving systems, including MAP, SRX and Rcode within a single device, thereby eliminating the need to double-tag.
  • Flexible duty cycle between transmission modes to optimize detection rates and data acquisition with respect to fish behaviour.
  • Permits simultaneous detection/decoding of hundreds of co-located transmitters.
  • Works with both existing coastal scale and fine scale monitoring arrays.
  • Also available in single and tri-mode operation.
  • Cost-effective solution for multiple technology deployments.
  • Sensor transmitters offer a variety of depth ranges.
  • Rapid transmission rates (5 seconds) for efficient mobile tracking.
