Title:

Active Underwater Noise Cancellation System Software Algorithm Feasibility Study and Initial Development

Agreement Number:

1032440

Agreement Value:

$30,000.00

Agreement Date:

Jul 7, 2025 - Jan 9, 2026

Description:

Rising Tide BioAcoustics is developing a system to reduce the underwater noise produced by ships. This Active Noise Cancellation system (ANC) cancels/absorbs the very low frequency (VLF) sound produced by the propellor and power/propulsion system that is the most damaging to the marine environment. A secondary benefit is the reduction of ship hull fouling which will decrease fuel/energy consumption as well as the transfer of invasive species.

Organization:
