Key features
- Transmit beam approx. 4 degrees along track, 80 degrees cross track; 16-element receive array
- Angle-of-arrival estimation resolves cross-track angle to less than one degree; typically 10-15 targets across an 80 degree swath
- Built-in IMU for pitch and roll compensation
- SonarView supports live capture, replay, and export to CSV point cloud and GSF (beta)
Variants with Blue Trail connector and with Bar30 pressure sensor are listed.
