Compact dual sensor 3D sidescan for side-mounted pole and small AUV applications.
3DSS-DX-450
The 3DSS-DX utilizes state-of-the-art acoustic transducer array technology, SoftSonar™ electronics and advanced signal processing to produce superior bathymetry and 3D sidescan images. This patented technology is able to resolve multiple concurrent sound wave arrivals, separating backscatter from the seabed, sea surface, water column and multipath arrivals. The result is stunning 3D sidescan imagery across the water column and superior swath bathymetry from a compact, easy-to-use sonar.

Turnkey hydrographic survey solutions with integrated peripherals for sideroof mount and small AUV applications.
3DSS-iDX-450
3DSS-iDX employs a patented signal processing approach that extends the single angle of arrival principle used in interferometric systems to accommodate multiple simultaneous backscatter arrivals (e.g. seabed, sea surface, water column and multipath). The result is superior wide-swath bathymetry and true 3D sidescan imaging in a compact, easy-to-use sonar. The iDX-450 integrates SVT and MRU sensors into the sonar head for turnkey operation. The Universal Sonar Interface Unit provides ultra-portable, simple operation with just a laptop and a battery, or simple interface to external MRU, GNSS and INS systems on a fully equipped survey launch or ASV.

The 3DSS-DX-450 AUV Integration Package is a flexible, compact dual sensor sonar package that can be configured to unmanned platforms requiring high resolution 3D imagery.
3DSS-DX-450-AUV
The 3DSS-DX-450-AUV employs a patented signal processing approach that extends the single angle of arrival principle used in interferometric systems to accommodate multiple simultaneous backscatter arrivals (e.g. seabed, sea surface, water column and multipath). The result is superior wide-swath bathymetry and true 3D sidescan imaging in a compact, easy-to-use sonar. The DX-450-AUV provides ultra-wide, multi-angle imaging for unmanned platforms. Low logistics operations and low power requirements make the 3DSS-DX-450 AUV package the perfect sonar to provide wide 3D imagery on unmanned platforms from the surf zone to 4 km below the surface.
