Products Featured Product Lightweight, 10° Down-Angle Options to ?Mini? M Series Sonar Teledyne BlueView?s new mini M Series is now available with lightweight and 10° down-angle options. Teledyne BlueView added two new options to its mini M Series 2D Mul- tibeam Imaging Sonar, lightweight and built-in 10° down-angle. The new lightweight model reduces the M Series weight by 30% to 3.4 lbs. in air with near neutral buoyancy in water. The new M Series lightweight and 10° down-angle options are speci Þ cally engineered to meet the demands of micro-ROV and diver handheld platforms. The built-in 10° degree down- angle enhances usability by improving imaging of bottom or surface tar- gets without having to tip the sonar or platform downward, and the light- weight improves handling. www.blueview.com RESON is adding the extra features con- tained in its Feature Pack 3 (FP3) to the SeaBat 7125-ROV2 multibeam system. FP3 contains RESON?s latest SeaBat technology for enhancing performance and ef Þ ciency, based on four state-of-the-art features: RE- SON?s new SeaBat User Interface, Tracker (Autopilot), X-Range (400kHz), and Full Rate Dual Head (400kHz).FP3 was introduced earlier this year on the SeaBat 7125-SV2 hardware platform and has proven to be a successful addition to the RESON family, providing customers with add- ed value by maximizing data density and en- hancing data quality through increased noise immunity. The X-Range and Full Rate Dual Head features form the core of the FP3 and are what make this feature pack such a use- ful addition to the SeaBat family. RESON?s X- Range is a software and hardware package that provides extended range performance for the SeaBat 7125 as well as signi Þ cantly increasing the system?s protection to exter- nal noise. X-Range combines frequency mod- ulated transmission with advanced signal processing techniques to extract maximum possible performance from the system. www.reson.com RESON SeaBat 7125-ROV2 Enhanced Performance January/February 2013 56 MTRMTR #1 (50-64).indd 56MTR #1 (50-64).indd 561/30/2013 11:31:35 AM1/30/2013 11:31:35 AM
