The initial ship fitment will take place on one of BP Shipping's 37Kt ships during the first quarter of 2009. Designed to allow Navigators the ability to see a 3D representation of the seabed in front of their vessel, the design uses the latest techniques in digital signal processing. The electronically scanning sonar displays a forward looking image in 3D over a 1Km range at an update rate of 0.5Hz for a complete 3D scan. The volume scanned is 90 degrees in the horizontal plane at 1.5 degrees resolution and 20 degrees in the vertical plane with 1 degree vertical height discrimination. The See-Echo brochure is now available on this web site under the "Products" / "3D Sonars" menu. |
