Gateway System for Non-Penetrating Data & Power Transfer through Solid Barriers

TECHNOLOGY SUMMARY

Gateway’s technology enables two-way power, data transfer and communication through a solid barrier (e.g. a ship or submarine hull) without penetration by hole or aperture, thus avoiding possibility of leakage. Gateway relies on advanced acoustic technology to transfer data (including hi-definition video) and power simultaneously across the barrier.
