invention

INISHOWEN Engineering
which has invented a unique underwater light got the
chance to demonstrate the product at a recent
meeting with Agriculture and Fisheries Minister Mary
Coughlan.
The Atlantis Light created by the Drumfries company,
will be unveiled next week at the world's biggest
fish farming show, the Aqua Nor 2007 trade fair in
Norway. |

The invention is unique
in that it allows the light to operate at lower
voltages, making it safer for use in the marine,
search and rescue, oil exploration and landscape
gardening industries, to name but a few of the
target markets.
"The Atlantis Light is a unique underwater light
that uses a patented |
water cooling design,
making it suitable for use in multiple
applications," explained Inishowen Engineering
company director Josephine Noone.
It is hoped the light will be bought by search and
rescue, exploration and oil companies throughout the
world. The local company will also market the
product to local authorities for municipal lighting.
Because it operates from a lower voltage it is much
safer to use in water. Represenatives of the local
firm will fly to Norway next week for the fair which
runs from August 14th to August 17th. They hope the
international show will raise the profile of the
invention and result in orders for the product. |
