Origin and Focus
Shine Micro has designed a wide variety of microprocessor-based electronics since 1980, with a focus on the marine VHF industry. Internationally regarded as the industry leader in long range Automatic Identification System (AIS) reception, we offer AIS solutions for maritime, avionics, Aids to Navigation (AtoNs), and self-contained, solar powered beacons. Shine Micro products are used for Maritime Domain Awareness, Asset Tracking and Analytics, and Intelligence and Surveillance, and are recognized by commercial and military users alike as the most sensitive AIS receivers available.
Notable Achievements
The Shine Micro SM1610 series Long Range AIS Receiver was selected by the USCG for the Nationwide Automatic Identification System (NAIS). Building on the success of the SM1610, the SM1680 “Octopus” enables real-time, persistent monitoring of the 200NM Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), without the latency and expense of a satellite subscription service.
COTS and MIL-Spec
Shine Micro offers COTS avionics AIS receiver products that are MIL-spec and used by multiple domestic and international governments and governmental agencies for real-time, persistent, long-range AIS surveillance from a wide variety of manned, unmanned, fixed wing, and rotary wing aircraft; including P3 and P8 airplanes, MH60 helicopters, ScanEagle®, Integrator™, and Fire Scout UAVs, and many others.
