SONAR 3D-15 by Water Linked
An advanced 3D multibeam imaging sonar with a range of 15 meters. Real-time 3D data now accessible in an amazingly compact sensor. The Sonar 3D-15 is at the forefront of underwater exploration, delivering a clear, three-dimensional acoustic image that penetrates even the murkiest of waters. Provides for intuitive navigation, greatly enhancing the user’s capability to maneuver around obstacles and pinpoint targets.
KEY FEATURES
How does 3D sonar work?
A 3D sonar image is generated by simultaneously forming acoustic beams that cover multiple rows, rather than just a single row of beams only capable of producing a 2D image. Sonar 3D-15 forms 16,000 beams, known as voxels. A voxel provides a value on a regular grid in three-dimensional space, meaning that they all have X, Y, Z and intensity data connected to each of them. As long as you know where the sonar is then you know exactly where each point is located as a georeferenced coordinate.
See clearly in waters with zero visibility
Advanced 3D multibeam imaging - High turbidity and low visibility renders optical cameras ineffective. SONAR 3D-15 provides a comprehensive understanding of the surrounding environment, regardless of water conditions.
Create point clouds specifically for your purposes
Each acoustic "ping" generates a complete 3D image without the need for scanning or post-processing.
Sonar 3D-15 generates a digital point cloud output, which is easily integrated with third-party software to create models of underwater targets and terrain.
Compact for factor - Upgrade any ROV with 3D sonar technology
Only 12 x 8 x 4cm - Weighs just 0.39 kg in-water!
Suitable for an extensive variety of ROVs, empowering even the smallest vehicles with the ability to discern targets in challenging conditions.
Navigate intuitively with real-time 3D imaging
Immediately generate a complete 3D image. Use the output to support real-time autonomous navigation and decision-making. Use the geo-referenced point cloud data as you see fit.
