Searching for drowned people is a hard task, and Hidrolab takes part in several such missions throughout the year. Almost all found victims have violented their own safety by not wearing a life-vest, which in most cases would have definitely saved their lives. Please stay safe. 

When people go missing it is never an easy thing, sure there is the occasional joy when they are found safe and sound, but in most situations that is not the case, at least not in situations involving water. When we set out to a location for scanning, it is always clear that we are searching for a drowned person.

Echoview 9 brings an exciting range of new tools and algorithms designed to advance your data processing capabilities and make analysis easier and more efficient.

This beta release is a great opportunity to test and experiment with the new features prior to the full release of Echoview 9. We recommend that beta versions are not used for crucial data processing, as some functionality and calculations may not yet be fully verified.

 

 

An introduction to the great new features in Echoview 9 beta can be found here: latest release page.

Great news – currently we have available Blueprint Subsea Oculus Multibeam Sonar M750d for demo!

 

The Oculus M-series multibeam sonars are a new generation of imaging sonar, designed for use across a wide variety of underwater applications. Their small form factor makes them ideally suited for deployment onto micro sized platforms, while their rugged construction also makes them an excellent choice for larger work-class vehicles and subsea infrastructure.

 

The Oculus M750d is a general purpose dual-frequency sonar offering up to 120 metre range capability at 750kHz, and 40 metre at 1.2MHz, with 130° and 70° horizontal fields of view respectively. With a weight in water of less than 400g, power consumption starting from 15 Watts (up to 35W) and options for 100-BaseT or 2-wire DSL high-speed communications, the M750d is ideal for mounting on small platforms, work-class ROV’s or sub-sea infrastructure to provide navigation and high resolution imagery for near field target identification.
