The Shark-S100DE Embedded Dual-frequency Side Scan Sonar is a multifunctional side scan sonar system designed for high-resolution imaging in both shallow and deep-water environments. It is specifically engineered for unmanned surface vessels (USVs), remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs/UUVs), and other embedded platforms. It supports both Continuous Wave and Linear Frequency Modulated Chirp signals, operating at 100 kHz and 450 kHz simultaneously to deliver both wide-area coverage and high-resolution detail.
The system includes two pressure-resistant transducer arrays, an electronic unit (sealed or unsealed), a communication and power cable, and proprietary OTech sonar software. It features a low-power design and operates on a wide DC input range of 18–36 V.
