Impact Subsea Launches New Profiling Sonar Sensor
Impact Subsea has launched its new ISP360 Profiling Sonar which features an IS3 Impact Subsea Signaling Scheme.A highly compact and power efficient 1° profiling sonar, it has a range of up to 80 meters and a 0.35mm timing resolution. It provides sonar imagery with profiler points overlaid on top. Each point can then be logged or output to a survey package to enable the creation of a 3D points cloud.Acoustically the ISP360 can operate over the frequency range of 650kHz to 1.25MHz using Continuous Wave (CW), Compressed High Intensity Radar Pulse (CHIRP) or the Impact Subsea Signaling Scheme (IS3).
