FARTHER

sigma S6 radar technology helps extend the range of existing radars to detect and track targets spanning ice, security threats, and people in distress. Enhance your navigation radar to see further and improve safety and security.

CLEARER

sigma S6 radar technology reduces the noise, displaying the clearest image possible from existing radars to allow operators to fully visualize pack ice, see the current position of an oil spill, or find that person in distress. Enhance your radar to see what you don’t see now to protect people and the environment.

SMARTER

sigma S6 radar technology analyzes the data from existing radars to measure waves & currents, predict wave action, analyze ice, and find oil spills. Enhance your radar to help run a smarter, better informed marine operation.

Rutter Inc., headquartered in St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada, and its subsidiary OceanWaveS GmbH in Lüneburg, Germany are developers of sigma S6 speciality radar signal processing technologies for the marine safety, security, and environmental monitoring sectors. sigma S6 systems are deployed in over 40 countries and across the seven seas.

sigma S6 signal processing, recording, and playback capabilities integrate with navigational or dedicated-purpose marine x-band radar to provide enhanced situational awareness that promotes safety, security, and efficiency in a variety of maritime situations. The sigma S6 Product Suite includes: Current Monitoring™, Ice Navigator™, Oil Spill Detection, Small Target Surveillance, WaMoS ® II, WaveSignal™, and WaveVision™.

These systems use high resolution radar imagery and advanced processing techniques to remove sea and weather clutter and other signal interference to improve target detection, tracking and enable in-depth analysis. The application of these systems span ice-management, planning and navigation; oil spill detection and response management; coastal surveillance; seismic array anti-fouling; early detection of illegal and dangerous small craft at sea; and wave and surface ocean current monitoring. All sigma S6 systems are available in combination to provide consolidated information reporting and decision support.

Current Monitor™

sigma S6 Current Monitor™ is a radar-based monitoring system that delivers ocean surface current data from moving stations and bathymetry from fixed locations with high spatial resolution. This greatly improves the management of marine-based activities such as predicting oil slick drift patterns, enhancing navigational safety, and protecting vulnerable coastlines.

Ice Navigator™

sigma S6 Ice Navigator™ is a radar-based system that can identify open water, ice pans, leads in ice fields and ice ridges. It provides operators with unprecedented, detailed navigational information and situational awareness. Capital expenditure and costs typically associated with activities in ice-threatened areas, can be dramatically offset.

Oil Spill Detection

Combining proven capability in early detection with the presentation of essential spill information regarding oil spill volume, thickness, deformation and drift, sigma S6 Oil Spill Detection significantly improves response time and mitigates potential environmental impact. sigma S6 Oil Spill Detection has been extensively tested and proven effective in independent trials conducted by the Norwegian Clean Seas Association for Operating Companies (NOFO).

Dramatically improve situational and environment awareness with 7/24/365 coverage. Gain 360 degrees of visibility within a 2NM range of the vessel or platform, Oil Spill Detection will alarm on potential oil in the water and outline the spill for effective containment and cleanup.

Small Target Surveillance

sigma S6 Small Target Surveillance system has proven value on offshore platforms, support vessels and in a range of coastal surveillance and monitoring applications. Our install base also includes coastal patrol vessels where the system is used for search and rescue operations and detection of small craft for interdiction and security purposes. Small Target Detection in use for applications as diverse as detecting birds, scouting for ice, wildlife monitoring, and lost container detection.

WaMoS® II

sigma S6 WaMoS® II is a radar-based, wave and surface current monitoring system that delivers real-time measurements while a vessel is underway, providing germane data to the local operational area. High definition images of wave fields combined with numerical data and intuitive graphical reporting keep the operator well-informed in assessing environmental risk and identifying safe operational windows.

LEARN MORE

WaveSignal™

sigma S6 WaveSignal™ is a radar-based wave prediction system that delivers real-time visibility of wave activity while a vessel is underway, providing valuable information to mariners.

LEARN MORE

WaveVision™

sigma S6 WaveVision™ is our revolutionary radar image processing system designed to work with most standard, onboard marine radar to identify and monitor waves above a specified threshold that can impact assets or operations. With a 2km radius range, WaveVision™ lets you see and track a large wave before it becomes a problem.
