System 5900
High-speed side scan sonar with gap filler, co-registered bathymetry and AI-based ATR: 3.2 cm across-track resolution at up to 12 knots.
Description
The Klein 5900 is a field-proven towed side scan sonar for defense, survey and offshore operations. It combines high-speed, high-resolution sonar with embedded electronics and AI-enabled processing to deliver detailed underwater imagery, support target detection and improve survey efficiency.
Key features
- 3.2 cm across-track and 0.07° along-track resolution at survey speeds up to 12 knots, with near-SAS-level detail
- Nadir gap-filler for continuous seafloor coverage, reducing repeat passes
- Co-registered bathymetry for topographic context
- Motion-tolerant design that maintains image quality in more challenging sea states
- Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) powered by Spectral AI for in-field detection and classification of mines, UXO and other underwater objects
Applications
- Mine countermeasure (MCM) operations
- Surveillance missions
- Geophysical and UXO surveys for offshore energy and infrastructure
