Sonar

Obstacle avoidance Sonar systems are used to compliment inspections carried out by ROVs. Sonar allows the pilot to navigate in poor or zero visibility and to improve search efficiency.
Scanning Sonar systems are used for inspection in zero visibility or in situations where Diver intervention is deemed undesirable. They provide extremely detailed high resolution “images” of the area being inspected.
