Abstract
The first MBARI shutter was developed to reduce the effect of biofouling (barnacles, etc.) on a variety of optical instruments in use on MBARI´s oceanic moored platforms. While the first shutter has been quite effective, the second shutter is smaller, consumes less power, and is contained in a simple package, making it easier to integrate into other MBARI platforms.
