Miros Wavex Virtual Sensor
Wavex is a dry sensor that leverages marine X-band navigation radar technology for surface current measurement. The sensor delivers highly accurate real-time data undisturbed by air bubbles, turbulence or other interferences caused by vessel motion.
Wavex does away with the time- and cost-related challenges of installing and maintaining underwater equipment and can be integrated into existing radar units without any need for calibration.

Accurate measurements of the speed through water of moving vessels is useful for a variety of applications including vessel fuel optimisation, hull performance, and docking and navigation in constrained areas. When considering fuel consumption per day, accurate speed measurements are essential for avoiding sub-optimal speeds and large additional costs. This results from the fact that just a small variation in speed can greatly impact fuel efficiency.
“Accurate speed through water data can help reduce daily fuel consumption by tens of tons for a single ship.”
Traditional methods of measuring speed through water – speed logs – are associated with a variety of challenges stemming from the fact that they are immersed in water. With Miros Speed Through Water, such complications can be avoided, since no underwater equipment is required. Additionally, cleaner and more accurate data can be collected. This is all thanks to recent innovations and developments to the Miros Wavex system. As a result, the cost-saving potential of the new Miros Speed Through Water functionality is significant.
