Technological advancements have played an important role in the development of surveillance systems. Deep seas are known to be very risky areas and there has been need to conduct study and survey in these places. This has really been made possible by the use of modern technology which has been used in making of unmanned surface vessel which are easy to send to far points and gather the necessary information.
They are designed differently which makes them appropriate to be used in the tough oceanic conditions and withstand wave attacks. They are made from light materials which increase their ability to float and shaped in such a way that reduces the friction felt as it sail thus consuming less energy. Advanced mechanisms employed to transform and use tides and solar into energy for propelling have also been used.
High technology has been put into practice to keep these vessels working. Automated remote control systems are fitted to ensure easy control and monitoring of the devices to the areas of interests. They are also fitted with devices that capture audio and videos and other important information they are designed to capture. They have GPS tracking system which makes it possible to know the distances they have covered and where they are headed to.
Control centers have been established. This is where all operations concerning their working are managed. A team of high skilled technicians and engineers are involved in writing different programs and operating systems and their commands. It is also from this unit that the boats are run from and all the information collected is sent here for analysis and recording for storage.
There has been intensive use of these vessels in military operations in many countries. It has become important to safeguard the international water bodies boundaries and territories. However the great risks present on the seas has made these operations challenging and difficult to send officers up on the waters. These boats have helped alleviate this challenge since they can be used to patrol thus promoting security.
Fleet companies have also benefited greatly from the use of this technology. Boats are sent into the sea to survey the weather and the tides crossing the path the ship is likely to use. The findings are then sent to the cabin crew who are able to know which routes are safer to follow. This has helped in reduction in the number of sea accidents.
Assailants have been able to use this technology and this has poised great danger to many nations. They have been able to spy on the security structure of other nations which has made it easy for terrorists to get in to the country. This has resulted to increased border porosity resulting to increased terrorist attacks in the country.
Numerous shortcomings have been downsized the level of results expected. Some vessels easily develop technical problems while on their operations. There is also a problem of bad network which may result to total disappearance of these boats and they cannot be traced. The waves may result to the sinking of the vessels.
