Prepare the conversation
Questions for a first conversation
Which Stella Maris setup, interfaces, test window and project-specific funding conditions fit the proposed sensor trial?
The published enquiry asks for interfacing/deployment requirements, test objectives, duration and preferred dates; funding may be available for eligible Canadian start-ups and SMEs. A project needs a scoped test arrangement rather than an assumed open slot.
Can this proposed sensor participate in the DRDC Sea Tracker experimentation pathway, and who authorizes the trial and data access?
Ultra Maritime identifies DRDC as the experimentation recipient and COVE and ACOA as collaborators. That source does not establish unrestricted access for other technology companies or disclose trial security conditions.
