Tritech informs it has recently delivered 55 Micron sonars to Blueprint Subsea as part of its order fulfillment for a number of global naval consignments.
The Micron sonars are to be integrated into Blueprint Subsea’s ARTEMIS system, a handheld diver navigation solution designed around the Tritech Micron sonar. The ARTEMIS system encompasses a subsea control and display unit, rechargeable battery pack, neutral buoyancy swim board and GPS buoy.
As a low power lightweight sensor, the Micron sonar provides long-range detection while maintaining short range capability; therefore making it suited for diver naval operations such as target search and identification. The Micron sonar utilizes digital CHIRP technology for improved range resolution and in this configuration provides the diver with a forward looking 90° field of view.
