Founded in Sweden in 1989, Qualisys develops high-precision optical motion capture systems for research and engineering. In marine applications, its technology enables accurate 6-degree-of-freedom (6DOF) tracking of scale model vessels and submerged objects, both above and below the waterline. Used in towing tanks, ocean basins and marine testing facilities worldwide, Qualisys systems provide reliable real-time motion data to support hydrodynamic research, testing and validation, including IMO-related testing.

HR Wallingford is a world leader in computer and laboratory physical modelling of water. Whether this is inland, coastal, or offshore. Our expertise range from climate resilience, coastal management, energy, flood management, waterway and port design, masterplanning, port operations with real-time ship simulations, water resources, dams and reservoirs as well as the design and supply laboratory equipment for use in laboratory and industrial test facilities. We are both supplier of these physical modelling facilities and measurement systems but also major user of these systems for our own commercial and research activities.
Established in 1947, HR Wallingford is a centre of excellence for maritime, coastal and fluvial engineering based at our headquarters in Wallingford, UK. The company also has regional offices in Manchester, UK; Perth, Australia; Mumbai; Kuala Lumpur; Abu Dhabi; Houston; and Shanghai.”
A high proportion of the work, undertaken for our clients uses physical scaled models. Through this work, HR Wallingford has gained a wealth of experience in both building wave generating systems that realistically simulate sea conditions, and developing the associated instrumentation, including data acquisition equipment required to capture and analyse the results. HR Wallingford is also recognised as a world leading supplier of hydrological and hydrodynamic research test facilities and measuring instrumentation. These include Cavitation Tunnels, Towing Tank and Sea-keeping and Manoeuvring Basins multi-motion carriages that combine with our Wave Generation Systems.
In addition to this, HR Wallingford have an extensive range of measuring instrumentation and dynamometry for use within physical model test facilities. In December 2019, HR Wallingford extended its portfolio within the Equipment and Technology (E&T) division with the acquisition and integration of The Marine Hydrodynamics of Manchester-based Cussons Technology. This included the experienced Manchester based team that design and fabricate this equipment, together with the guardianship of Kempf & Remmers equipment and facilities designs recognised and used throughout the world.
