    Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) deployed an Ocean Power Technologies self-powered buoy for oceanographic and meteorological studies and 24/7 maritime domain awareness applications. The buoy employs AT&T 5G communication technologies to relay data real-time to NPS. The buoy was deployed by Westar Marine Services with support from Stanford University’s Hopkins Marine Station and its electrically-powered vessel to carry NPS observers.
