Floating Mini Ocean Wave Buoy to Observe Sea Wave Height Direction Period Wave Spectrum
Small Size, Long Observation Period, Real-Time Communication
Mini Wave Buoy can observe the wave data in the short-term by the way of short-term fixed-point or drifting, providing stable and reliable data for Ocean scientific research, such as wave height, wave direction, wave period and so on.

Description
Optional monitoring parameters:
Surface temperature, salinity, air pressure, noise monitoring are expandable parameters.
Introduction:
Mini Wave Buoy is a sort of buoy, which is designed for ocean monitoring. It is able to monitor short-term fixed-point or drifts observation of sea wave data and provide reliable data of wave height, wave direction, wave period and other factors data for Marine scientific research.
