HOBI Labs is a private marine sciences laboratory offering a unique line of optical marine instruments. The HydroScat-6 and HydroScat-2 are optical-scattering meters that accurately measure the backscattering coefficient at six and two wavelengths, respectively. We recently introduced two new single-wavelength instruments called a-Beta and c-Beta. These sensors measure the absorption and beam attenuation coefficients as well as the backscattering coefficient.
