The awards took place yesterday at the state-of-the-art Portsmouth Centre for Creative and Immersive Extended Reality (CCIXR). STS Defence’s award recognises the success of a recently-won contract from the Ministry of Defence to develop and demonstrate innovative software algorithms to capture noise and vibration data from sensors in order to identify defective channels so that they can be removed from the data-stream prior to processing by other systems.
Portsmouth Innovation Award first timers Lockheed Martin UK who sponsored the award, spoke of their experience. Emlyn Taylor, Group Managing Director, Lockheed Martin UK said: “As a large company based in the area, we are proud to encourage and support exciting, innovative ideas and ambitious plans that will inspire others.
“These awards highlight the work and ingenuity of local companies and people and with the Maritime sector being incredibly important to our business, we are delighted to celebrate and promote the technologies and innovations in this area, which can only bring economical benefits and help people thrive for decades to come.”
Jonathan Bowley, Managing Director at STS Defence spoke of his delight at the outcome: “We are delighted to have won and to have had the chance to demonstrate our research and development capabilities.
"As an SME that is continually innovating, winning this award only furthers our ambitions. Thank you again to all our staff who contributed to this success.”
