Scanning Sonar
Catalog NO.: AIMRSE-ROV-PRT-006 Manufacturer PN: ROV-SON-SCAN
• 50-meter measurement range; 360° scanning coverage; high resolution; adjustable
Integrated onto ROV systems for conducting surveying and mapping operations.
The scanning sonar is a highly cost-effective underwater scanning imaging sonar with a 50-meter scanning range and an operational depth of up to 300 meters. With its open-source host computer code, it serves as a powerful auxiliary tool for marine robotics technology.
| Principle | This scanning sonar transmits a narrow beam of acoustic energy via a transducer and then listens for echoes. The transducer is mounted on the P360's rotating motor, which rotates in 1° increments. The P360 generates a circular image of the sonar's surroundings with a maximum range of 50 meters. Its imaging results resemble effects seen in weather radar from news reports or lidar on autonomous robots. |
