RS Aqua announced the launch of Marlin, a new realtime acoustic monitoring system designed to transform how ocean intelligence is accessed, analyzed and acted upon. Marlin is the first commercial system developed from Project MARLIN, a multi-year Innovate UK funded research program focused on real-time ocean intelligence.
Marlin extends traditional passive acoustic monitoring by delivering full access to raw broadband data and intelligent detection results in near real time, enabling faster and more informed decisions in complex marine environments.
Traditionally, passive acoustic data has been retrieved and analyzed after instrument recovery. Marlin enables near real time secure access to broadband audio and detection results, supporting marine mammal monitoring, vessel noise assessment and critical infrastructure protection.
Marlin is made up of three integrated components:
- Marlin Link is the hardware deployed in the field. It connects to acoustic recorders such as RS Aqua’s Porpoise, captures data and transmits it securely for processing. Designed for reliability in coastal and remote ocean environments, it operates with minimal intervention.
- Marlin Cloud is the secure processing layer. It receives and stores incoming acoustic data, runs AI-enabled analytics and generates real-time alerts, turning raw sound into structured, accessible information.
- Marlin Connect is the desktop application where users interact with the system.
