Sonar & Survey Systems

BFS: Scanning Multi-beam Sonar

The BFS is an advanced, high frequency scanning-multibeam sonar.  Employing state of the art signal processing, the BFS can produce an image updated up to 6 times per second on the short range settings.  With high speed Ethernet communications, a 1.1 MHz beam frequency and 10mm range resolution, the BFS provides nearly video quality imagery.

881L-GS Imaging: Scanning Sonar

The Model 881L-GS sonar, which employs a low drift gyroscope as well as a magnetic compass, is capable of correcting for orientation changes at a rate in excess of 500 degrees per second, which allows it to compensate for sudden turns and inadvertent bumping or jarring.  Therefore, scan lines are displayed without blurring, compression, or smearing effects in all modes of operation, be it polar, sector or North-up.
