Vancouver, BC – March 2026 — CURRENT Scientific Corporation (CURRENT), a Canadian manufacturer of advanced electro-optical infrared (EO/IR) camera systems, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Furuno Norway, a leading provider of marine electronics and navigation systems.
Through this collaboration, Furuno Norway will represent and integrate CURRENT’s stabilized multi-sensor EO/IR systems into its bridge and navigation offerings, enabling maritime operators to benefit from a more comprehensive and unified approach to situational awareness.
Furuno Norway is recognized for delivering reliable navigation, radar, and bridge solutions across commercial and government maritime sectors. By combining Furuno’s established navigation technologies with CURRENT’s long-range thermal imaging, high-definition day cameras, and AI-assisted detection capabilities, the partnership bridges traditional navigation systems with advanced optronic sensing. The result is enhanced visibility, improved decision-making, and greater operational confidence in low-visibility and high-workload environments.
“We are proud to formalize our collaboration with Furuno Norway,” said Greg Menzies, President of CURRENT. “Both organizations share a strong commitment to reliability, technical excellence, and customer support. By aligning our EO/IR expertise with Furuno Norway’s integrated bridge systems, we are strengthening the tools available to maritime operators who depend on accurate, real-time situational awareness.”
For CURRENT, the partnership represents a strategic expansion within Norway and the broader Scandinavian maritime market. It reinforces CURRENT’s position as a trusted provider of stabilized EO/IR systems for commercial, security, and defense applications, while increasing visibility within established maritime networks that rely on Furuno’s technology.
For customers, the collaboration simplifies procurement and integration. Operators gain access to integrated navigation and electro-optical solutions supported by Furuno Norway’s local service network, ensuring responsive technical assistance, training, and long-term system support. The combined offering enables radar, AIS, and navigation data to complement EO/IR imaging systems, supporting safer operations both offshore and in coastal environments.
“Collaborating with CURRENT allows us to expand the situational awareness capabilities we provide to the maritime market,” said Kenneth Eilertsen, Business Developments Manager at Furuno Norway. “CURRENT`s EO/IR systems integrate well with our BlueBridge and TimeZero ecosystem while also offering flexible standalone deployment, supporting a broad range of vessels from high-tech fishing fleets and offshore operators to Search & Rescue, USVs, and governmental vessels.”
CURRENT’s systems are deployed globally across naval, coast guard, commercial, and specialty maritime vessels, as well as land-based surveillance applications. Designed for reliability in dynamic marine conditions, the company’s gyro-stabilized multi-sensor platforms provide long-range detection and identification capabilities day and night, supporting navigation, security monitoring, search and rescue, and coastal surveillance missions.
This partnership underscores both organizations’ shared commitment to advancing maritime safety through practical innovation and integrated system design.
