Our Multibeam Imaging Sonar Products
Blueprint Oculus Multibeam Sonar | M3000D
The M3000D is the best sonar option for short range inspections. Utilizing the highest frequency in its class, the M3000D is perfect for identifying targets and close range navigation, as well as detailed inspections with the highest resolution of any 2D imaging sonar.
Integrating directly into the ROV and viewed on the handheld controller, the M3000D provides users with a solution for close range inspections in murky water. Providing a reliable set of eyes regardless of turbidity, the M3000D allows operators to identify targets in search and recovery, provide insight in UWILD hull inspections and assist in navigation.
Blueprint Oculus Multibeam Sonars | M1200D
The M1200d multibeam imaging sonar conveniently mounts to our ROVs or Utility Crawlers for effective target identification in turbid waters. The M1200's high operational resolution features a peak frequency of 2.1MHz, an integrated velocimeter for improved accuracy, and a range resolution of 2.5mm for detailed close-range inspections.
The M1200D short-range imaging provides the highest quality image in the M-series sonars. Ideal for up close inspections of submerged structures and diver monitoring in turbid waters.
In murky water, you might need to move your ROV within just a few inches of the hull to get an effective visual. The problem with this is that it then becomes very difficult to understand your position under the vessel, especially large cargo vessels or cruise ships, and it also takes significantly longer to perform the inspection.
Using an imaging sonar, you can visualize the hull from further way, and identify anomalies through that murky water while also seeing more of the ship to give you positional awareness.
Oculus C550d Multibeam Imaging Sonar
The C550d Multibeam Sonar opens up a realm of possibilities for Ven-Tech Subsea's search and recovery teams, inspection, marine research.
The C550d defies limitations, delivering impressive imaging capabilities that allow Van-Tech Subsea to identify solid structures and targets even in low visibility scenarios. This sonar allows us to navigate confidently and make informed decisions based on the crisp, high-quality sonar footage.
Beyond navigation, the C550d empowers us with the ability to conduct thorough inspections. Whether we are verifying targets, assessing underwater assets, or ensuring safety, this sonar offers the clarity and detail we and the client need to excel.
Low-Visibility Operations
Cameras and diver’s eyes often are unable to effectively search due to poor visibility underwater. An imaging sonar is the best tool to then reidentify the target, since oftentimes side scan data does not produce an exact location (so navigating back to the potential target can be difficult). Once the target is reidentified, the sonar can be used to continue to track the target as you move closer, and when you get close enough, it can even be used to perform the visual verification.
Our Oculus M-series multibeam sonars are a new generation of imaging sonar, designed for use across a wide variety of underwater applications.
Their small form factor makes them ideally suited for deployment onto micro sized ROV platforms, while their rugged construction also makes them an excellent choice for larger work-class vehicles and subsea infrastructure.
