Sonardyne's expertise in acoustic technology extends to acoustic positioning, intertial navigation and motion sensing, diver marking and relocation, instrument release and actuation, sonar imaging, offshore monitoring and control and subsea wirless communications.
Scout Diver Tracking
Scout USBL is a complete vessel based acoustic positioning system designed for tracking divers, ROVs and towfish in waters up to 1,000 metres. The system calculates the position of a subsea target by measuring the range (distance) and bearing (heading) from a vessel mounted transceiver to a small acoustic transponder fitted to the target - a technique known as Ultra-Short BaseLine (USBL) positioning. USBL is widely used by the offshore survey and ocean scientific industries as it offers high accuracy performance combined with efficient subsea tracking operations.
