TRIAXYS™ Directional Wave
Buoy
 Developed in conjunction with the Canadian Hydraulics Centre of the National
Research Council of Canada, the TRIAXYS™ Directional Wave Buoy is a precision instrument incorporating new technologies that make it an easy to use, rugged, and economical buoy for accurate measurement of directional waves.
The TRIAXYS™ sensor unit (PDF, 229 Kb) is comprised of three accelerometers, three rate gyros, a fluxgate compass, and the proprietary TRIAXYS™ Processor.
Unlike other wave buoys, the TRIAXYS™ Directional Wave Buoy is solar powered, eliminating the need for frequent and expensive battery replacement. TRIAXYS™ is also easy to handle during deployment as it can be rolled off a ship deck without any concern for sensor damage due to spinning.
Please see our Mooring Requirements Page for information, calculations
and recommendations on moorings for TRIAXYS™ Wave Buoys.
Wave and sea surface temperature data are processed and logged on the
buoy and then transmitted via VHF, cell, or satellite telemetry to a base
station hosting AXYS' WaveView™ software
which allows for full presentation and archiving of data along with diagnostic
utilities.
Standard mooring configurations specially designed for wave buoys are available for water depths up to 150m. Our Service Department can design custom moorings for water depths in excess of 150m. All TRIAXYS™ Directional Wave Buoys are equipped with the WatchCircle Alarm to provide notification if a buoy moves off station, and when teamed with satellite telemetry, provides tracking information for buoy recovery. 
TRIAXYS™ Mini Directional Wave Buoy
In response to on-going demands for buoys that are easy and quick to deploy, AXYS Technologies Inc. (AXYS) developed the TRIAXYS™ Mini Directional Wave Buoy. This small and rugged buoy is a precision instrument created for accurate measurement of directional waves. The 0.6m diameter and 60kg mass allows for manageable deployment between two people from virtually any size of vessel.
