Doppler Volume Sampler (DVS).
The revolutionary new DVS, Doppler Volume Sampler, was developed by Teledyne RDI to support a multi-year contract from NOAA/PMEL for a next generation moored current profiler (click here for full press release).
The new low power DVS offers an advanced alternative to single point current meters, offering up to 5 bins of high resolution data, plus the following unique technology advantages.

- Four-beam Janus configuration for a profile of the error velocity - high error velocities in the near bins would indicate inhomogeneous flow due to the mooring line.
- High precision: The DVS measures velocity profiles at up to 100 times per second, allowing mm/s precision at a 1 Hz update rate.
- Multi-tasking capability: The DVS can be programmed to run a pre-configured sampling strategy, which need not be interrupted should the operator decide to communicate with the DVS to download data or command additional samples.
- Optional next-generation internal inductive modem and high-precision (0.005 °C) thermistor, both from Sea-Bird Electronics, Inc.
- High sample-rate solid-state compass/tilt sensor: measures at up to 15 Hz, which we use to help identify periods of mooring line strumming in the data.
