Teledyne Marine, in collaboration with Teledyne Geospatial, has taken part in the SeaSEC Challenge 2025 (SCW25), an international event dedicated to testing and validating maritime security technologies in operationally realistic scenarios.
Held off the coast of Scheveningen, Netherlands, the two-week exercise brought together defense ministries, industry leaders, and research bodies from six nations to address the growing need to secure critical underwater infrastructure.
Teledyne Marine participated in all three of the challenge’s complex missions, showcasing multi-technology solutions spanning sonar, AUVs, hydrophones, and more.
In Challenge #1, Sea What’s There, Teledyne used a combination of passive acoustic monitoring and forward-looking sonar to detect and track uncooperative underwater vehicles in real time. Real-world data was transmitted live to shore-based teams using Teledyne’s integrated communication systems.
Challenge #2, No Pipe to Lose, focused on locating potential threats near pipelines. For this Teledyne fielded the Gavia AUV equipped with multibeam sonar, along with a trencher carrying the HydroPACT pipe tracker. Simultaneous surveys from a USV and traditional survey vessel highlighted the flexibility and scalability of Teledyne’s maritime toolkit.
In the final challenge, Fishy Finds, participants identified seabed anomalies by comparing real-time sonar data with previously mapped areas (this baseline data was provided by Teledyne). Deploying SeaBat sonars from both USVs and AUVs, supported by Teledyne Geospatial’s lidar platform and advanced PDS software, Teledyne Marine enabled fast, accurate detection of suspicious seabed activity.
