Teledyne Marine ‘s advanced,
forward-looking sonar (FLS)
systems offers tailored solutions
for various applications.
Underwater navigation is fraught
with challenges—unpredictable
environmental conditions and
hidden obstacles. In regions like
the Arctic, shifting ice floes can
pose significant risks, while
coastal areas with complex
topographies demand
heightened situational
awareness.
Teledyne’s forward-looking
sonar systems address these
challenges by providing high-
resolution, near-real-time
imaging of the underwater
environment, ensuring safer and
more efficient operations.
Unlike downward-facing sonars
that primarily survey the
seafloor, FLS systems focus on
the horizontal plane, making
them indispensable for
detecting obstacles, monitoring
marine environments, and
navigating dynamic or poorly
mapped areas. These
capabilities are crucial for
industries ranging from offshore
energy to defence and scientific
research.
BLUEVIEW SERIES
For precise, close-up imaging
during diving applications, the
BlueView series handheld
systems produce crisp pictures
for hull inspections and
underwater construction.
These sonars are lightweight,
scalable solutions that connect
seamlessly to existing AUVs and
ROV systems.
They are particularly flexible
and ensure reliable operation in
harsh underwater environments.
SEABAT F50 AND 7123
On the other hand, the SeaBat F50
and 7123 are used for longer-
range and better resolution.
The most precise systems the
company offers for imaging for
navigation, search and rescue, and
offshore energy. .
