Accesorio de sonar de generación de imágenes multihaz de proyección Oculus M370S para las orugas robóticas y vehículos de operación remota de Deep Trekker.
Sonar de generación de imágenes bidimensionales para lograr ver en aguas oscuras o turbias. El M370 es un sonar multihaz de 375 kHz. Tiene la menor capacidad de rango que cualquier otro sonar de generación de imágenes (0,2 m a 200 m) pero ofrece imágenes de menor calidad en comparación con el M750 o el M1200 y se adapta mejor a la navegación de largo alcance y en misiones de búsqueda y rescate en aguas abiertas.
Sonar for hull inspection
In inspection operations, particularly in murky water applications, it can be difficult to use just a camera to get an understanding of the condition of a structure.
For example, when inspecting the hull of a ship, you want to see if there are any major defects or corrosion, damage to the coating, zincs, anodes, propeller, check the coating condition, check if the hull needs to be cleaned.
Sonar for search and recovery
In Search and Recovery operations, First responders looking for evidence or drowning victims typically sweep an area using side scan sonar, identify potential targets and then investigate those targets to see if it is in fact the victim.
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.
