ROV sonar RGB

side scan

The Model 878 RGB Sidescan Sonar is the next generation in high resolution sidescan sonar. The unit runs three simultaneous sonars on each side at different sound wavelengths, providing enhanced image clarity. Just as your eyes see in colour, the RGB sonar uses different wavelengths of sound, translating them directly to colours on the display. For the first time it is possible to discriminate targets based on their acoustic “colour”. The towfish is also equipped with an echo sounder and a built-in orientation module as well as depth and temperature sensors to provide detailed context to the sonar imagery.
