    • نبذة مختصرة :
      A device having an integrated CPU and at least one data port to receive at least one data signal from shipboard equipment for conversion and communication to a remote fishery management system, wherein the CPU converts a data signal into a format which is recognized and processible by a remote fishery management system for the purpose of communication and control of various shipboard equipment by the remote fishery management system.
    • Claim:
      1. A device having an integrated CPU programmed to convert data signals between a standardized format and various proprietary formats and at least one data port to receive and transmit said data signals between shipboard equipment and a remote fishery management, wherein said CPU converts said at least one data signal into a format which is recognized and processible by a remote fishery management system for the purpose of communication and control of various shipboard equipment by said remote fishery management system and converts said remote fishery management system trigger signals into trigger signals which can be recognized by said shipboard equipment.
    • Claim:
      2. The device of claim 1, wherein said shipboard equipment includes at least one of a sensor and an imaging system.
    • Claim:
      3. The device of claim 2, wherein said sensor includes at least one of depth sounders, GPS trackers, temperature sensors, motion sensors, and weight scale sensors.
    • Claim:
      4. The device of claim 3, wherein said device can process signals from different types of sensors concurrently.
    • Claim:
      5. The device of claim 2, wherein said imaging system includes at least one of a conventional CCTV, infrared, thermal imaging, and high-definition digital camera.
    • Claim:
      6. The device of claim 5, wherein said device can process signals from different types of cameras concurrently.
    • Claim:
      7. The device of claim 1, wherein said device utilizes a buffering system to accommodate disparities in at least one of data transmission rates and processing speeds among the various sensors and cameras.
    • Claim:
      8. The device of claim 1, further comprising a data storage for at least one of device data signal input and device data signal output for the purpose of enabling both real-time and batch processing modes to fit different operational needs.
    • Claim:
      9. The device of claim 1, wherein said CPU can convert signals from said remote fishery management system to at least one of proprietary and universal trigger signals which permits communication and control of various said shipboard sensors and imaging systems.
    • Claim:
      10. The method of integrating an existing fishing vessel's shipboard equipment with a remote fishery management system by receiving signals from said shipboard equipment that a remote fishery management system cannot process into a device which converts said signals into a format said remote fishery management system can process and use to perform catch characterization for reporting purposes.
