BlueView Technologies, Inc., is a provider of miniature multibeam imaging sonar. BlueView delivers acoustic under- water vision solutions using a technology breakthrough that provides high performance imaging sonar capabilities for the first time in compact, low power systems. Since delivering the first products in mid 2005, BlueView has been tripling annual commercial products sales and doubling overall annual revenues, which include revenues from 11 awarded US Navy contracts.

BlueView has developed a broad line of 2D and 3D sonar systems that operate from 225 kHz to 2.25 MHz and can therefore meet a wide range of underwater vision needs. The P450E-15 (450 kHz) sonar was introduced in mid 2005, followed by the P900-20 (900 kHz) in 2007 and the new dual frequency DF900-2250 (900/2250 kHz) in 2008. Over 140 BlueView commercial systems have been successfully integrated onto ROV platforms from micro to work class categories, numerous small to medium sized UUV, diver hand-held units, boat mount systems and fixed surveillance platforms to fast become the new standard in multibeam imaging sonar. These systems have been delivered to 25 major US port security groups, US and international navies, NOAA, global defense contrac- tors, universities, as well as offshore oil and gas groups. In addition, over a dozen custom UUV systems have been delivered to provide integrated obstacle avoidance, automated homing, and 3D imaging capabilities on a variety of

UUV platforms. BlueView was certified in 2008 as a Top 20 percent performer by Open Ratings, Inc based on the

Past Performance Evaluation survey responses of its customers. According to Open Ratings, BlueView Technologies'

PPE score of 95/100 demonstrates outstanding overall customer satisfaction in many areas such as reliability, prod- uct quality, cost and reliability as well as customer support.
