System description
The Kongsberg Mesotech M3 Sonar is a compact, versatile multibeam sonar.
Multibeam sonars have an array of transducers that
simultaneously transmits pings (sound pulses) at
a specified frequency to cover a large area in less
time than a single-beam transducer. To generate
data, computer software assigns a colour range
corresponding to the amount of sound reflected off a
target. The distance to the target is determined by the
length of time it took to receive the transmitted acoustic
pulse.
By combining the high refresh rate of a conventional multibeam sonar with an image
quality comparable to a single-beam sonar, the M3 Sonar provides high-resolution
images that are easy to interpret. The M3 Sonar detects objects out to 150 metres and has
a 120° to 140° field of view, allowing you to see the full underwater picture in real-time.
The M3 Sonar provides wide-angle full-range situational awareness and concurrent
ultra-short range imaging with dynamic focusing. For optimized obstacle avoidance, the
M3 Sonar uses variable vertical beamwidth.
