Teledyne Scientifc has extensive experimental and nu- merical simulation capabilities staffed by a full-time team of more than 120 Ph.D.-level scientists and engineers or- ganized in fve core areas of materials, optics, information sciences, electronics, and imaging sensors. Activities range from fundamental and applied sciences to targeted product development and product life-cycle support. Teledyne Sci- entifc provides critical technologies to all Teledyne compa- nies and customers. Teledyne Oil & Gas Technology Development Center. Located in Daytona Beach, Florida, this is a 52,000-sq. ft., high-tech research and product development center de- signed to bring forward engineered solutions primarily for the offshore oil and gas production and exploration indus- tries. This unique facility, available to the entire Teledyne Marine group, works in partnership with Teledyne Scientifc and focuses on resolving next-generation technical chal- lenges for offshore and marine applications, and includes an extensive on-site machine shop, ocean simulation area, multiple hyperbaric pressure chambers, and test labs for ad- vanced materials selection and qualifcation; all to assure the optimal performance life in harsh subsea operations. Teledyne Engineered Solutions. An expanded team of Teledyne companies, led by Teledyne Brown Engineering, collaborates with the Teledyne Marine product brands to turn individual products and components into integrated system solutions. This organization has the experience, knowledge and commitment required to deliver highly com- plex, integrated systems for large defense and commercial programs. A recent success includes a contract awarded to Teledyne Brown to provide the U.S. Navy with a feet of 150 marine gliders. The team for this program included Teledyne Brown for system integration; Teledyne Webb Research for glider development and production; and the University of Washington--Applied Physics Lab, for software. From the Surface to the Seafoor Teledyne Marine provides leading-edge technology so- lutions for oceanographic research, marine transportation, biological applications, offshore energy, defense, and water resource management. Whether a customer is conducting a seismic survey, developing a long-term ocean monitor- ing station for tsunamis, or drilling for oil in record depths, the product brands of Teledyne Marine can not only provide the products and services necessary for a successful deploy- ment, they can also conduct specialized testing, provide reliability data, and develop application-specifc systems when off-the-shelf solutions are not appropriate. Collabora- tive opportunities exist in each focused market. Oceanographic Science. Teledyne Marine's expertise in oceanographic research is evident in applications such as integrated ocean observatories, deepwater surveys, wreck survey and salvage, and biological observation and man- agement. Teledyne Marine provides the fxed or foating acoustic proflers, sonar systems and echosounders, the ve- hicle platforms for deployment, and the interconnect that networks the systems together. Marine Transportation and Water Resources. For appli- cations such as port and harbor surveying, dredge guidance and monitoring, navigation aids, and hazard detection,
