DST compass now in production!

01.11.2007

The development of DST compass has been a complex and lengthy process, but the product is finally ready, and in production. DST-Compass measures and stores information on compass directions (earth magnetic field) in addition to temperature and fish depth (pressure). This tag opens up interesting possibilities to access directions in movements of aquatic animals. The tag can cast extra light on various parts of their activity below the surface and how they orientate and navigate during migration.
