Pulsar Side Scan Sonar

Pulsar: High-Resolution Seabed Imaging System

Pulsar is a rugged, portable side-scan sonar system engineered for high-resolution acoustic imaging of the seabed. It efficiently surveys large areas, revealing small objects and structures in minute detail, making it ideal for SAR, inspection, and scientific surveys.

Key Features

• Optimized Performance: Operates from 550 text kHz to 1 MHz with selectable FM/CW signals to balance range and resolution for specific survey tasks.
• Rapid Deployment: Designed for intuitive operation by non-specialized personnel using vessels of opportunity.
• Rugged & Portable: Includes a compact stainless steel tow fish, a small cable hand reel (up to 300 m optional cable), and an IP64 water-protected deck unit.
• Integrated Surveying: The deck unit features integrated GPS (with SBAS corrections) and connects via Ethernet to dedicated software for planning, real-time data acquisition, processing, visualization, and industry-standard data export.
• Flexible Power: Powered by 24 text VDC (battery) or 110/230 VAC (mains).
