Star-Oddi

Star-Oddi is a high technology company engaged since 1993, in the development and manufacture of micro data loggers, micro-electronics, sensors and equipment for scientists studying the ocean and its resources. Star-Oddi's products are used in research applications as behavioral studies on fish and marine animals, ecology, oceanography, and limnology.

The DST milli is a miniature data logger available with two sensors, temperature and depth (pressure)
The DST centi is a miniature data logger available with two sensors, temperature and depth (pressure) with extended memory
Starmon mini is a temperature recorder designed for use in oceans, rivers, and lakes.
The DST CTD is a miniature data logger available with three sensors, conductivity (salinity), temperature and pressure (depth).
The SeaStar software allows the user to define the start time of recordings (year/month/date, /hour/min.).
Starmon hi-temp is a temperature recorder designed for use in high temperature ranges.
To connect to the Starmon Temperature Recorders a communication cable is used which is connected between the recorder and a PC computer.
The DSTs are operated with the SeaStar software and a communication box, which is connected to a PC computer.
The UTE opens new fields in fish research, enabling researchers to tag deepwater species that have not been previously tagged, and can not survive being brought to the surface.
Star-Oddi offers protective housings are utilized in manufacture of the DST's. Thus they can be used in harsh environmental conditions such as fastening it to fishing gear or when using a DST as a stand-alone data logger.
Star Oddi Develops New GPS Fish Tag Continuing their development of Data Storage Tags for fisheries research, Star-Oddi completes a 3 year development program and has achieved what has been a huge task to miniaturize the Data Storage Tag without compomosing its performance. The new tag can easily be carried by a medium sized fish and records important research data. In conjunction with their project partner, SIMRAD of Norway, they have solved the problem of ships being able to transmit by sonar, GPS data which is then stored on any fish which has been tagged and is within a 5 km range of the ship. As the ship's sonar sends out acoustic pings, the GPS Tag stores the fish's position at the time and date it was pinged thus turning the tagged fish into an important research instrument, gathering vital species information.
