Real-time long-range detection sonar

Hydro International - 

BlueView Technologies has launched a long range imaging sonar with a wide field-of-view: the P450 Series, available in five models including two deep-water options.

Each model has a maximum detection range of 250 metres (820 ft.), while delivering crisp, real-time imagery at medium to long ranges.

These forward-looking systems are engineered to allow operators to detect, track, monitor, and navigate across extended distances, improving situational awareness and reducing reaction time.

The P450 Series is available in three different field-of-view options including the ultra-wide 130° for the largest detection area available from a compact, portable system.

The images are actual screen captures from the P450-130, showing detected targets (pier structure and pilings) at various distances up to 225 metres; the inset image shows the details of a sunken boat captured at a range of approximately 40 metres using a BlueView boat mounted deployment accessory.
