CHASING Omniscan 450 FS Sonar for Chasing M2 Pro Max Underwater Drone – 100m & 300m Rated | MaxStrata®
CHASING Omniscan 450 FS Sonar for Precision Underwater Scanning | Compatible with Chasing M2 Pro Max Underwater Drone
Enhance your underwater exploration with the CHASING Omniscan 450 FS Sonar, a cutting-edge forward-looking sonar system designed for remote-operated vehicles (ROVs) and surface vessels. The transducer and electronics are housed in a single enclosure with Ethernet + power interface. With a depth rating of 100 meters or 300 meters, this sonar delivers high-resolution imaging and superior situational awareness in even the murkiest underwater conditions. Two enclosure options are available for 100m or 300m depth rating.
3 Application Modes
The CHASING Omniscan 450 FS sonar offers three distinct modes—2D Mode, 3D Mode, and Waterfall Mode—each serving unique purposes and enhancing situational awareness in underwater environments. Here’s a breakdown of the differences among these modes:
2D Mode
- Functionality: Provides a flat, two-dimensional view of the scanned area.
- Use Case: Ideal for quick assessments of the seafloor and surrounding structures, allowing operators to identify objects and features without depth perception.
- Control: Enables intuitive manual scanning with real-time updates as the ROV or vessel moves, helping focus on specific areas of interest.
- Benefits: Effective for general navigation and obstacle detection, providing a simple overview of the terrain.
3D Mode
- Functionality: Offers a three-dimensional representation of the underwater environment.
- Use Case: Useful for detailed inspections and understanding complex underwater structures, such as wrecks or formations.
- Depth Visualization: This mode enables operators to perceive height and depth, giving a fuller understanding of the underwater topography.
- Benefits: Enhances situational awareness by providing depth context, which is crucial for tasks requiring precision, such as mapping or recovery operations.
Waterfall Mode
- Functionality: Visualizes the sonar data as a dynamic, moving image that represents the changes over time.
- Use Case: Best for monitoring real-time changes in the underwater environment, such as currents or moving objects.
- Temporal Analysis: Allows operators to track the movement of fish, debris, or other items, providing insights into dynamic scenarios.
- Benefits: Great for environmental studies or when conducting operations where movement is a critical factor.
These modes collectively enhance the usability of the Omniscan 450 FS, making it a versatile tool for underwater exploration and operations,
- Forward-Looking Precision: The Omniscan 450 FS is tailored for forward-looking ROV applications, allowing operators to scan areas with real-time accuracy. The sonar’s transducer and electronics are housed in a single, compact enclosure, offering an Ethernet + power interface for seamless integration.
- Real-Time Visualization: As the ROV or surface vessel moves, Cerulean SonarView software “paints” a detailed image of the sea floor, enabling clear situational awareness. Operators can quickly identify areas of interest and avoid obstacles.
- Manual Scanning Control: With manual control over the scanning process, ROV operators can focus on specific sectors instantly, without the delays typically associated with mechanical scanning sonar. The intuitive “Heading Up” mode makes manual scanning more efficient and user-friendly.
- Advanced Motion Tracking: For ROVs equipped with GPS or Doppler Velocity Log (DVL), the Omniscan 450 FS provides both rotational and translational scanning, offering full 2D motion tracking. This feature enhances navigation in complex underwater environments, allowing for precise position hold modes when needed.
- Versatile Applications: The CHASING Omniscan 450 FS is ideal for a range of underwater operations, including search and rescue missions, hydrological monitoring, aquaculture management, and underwater research.
