AS900 Side‑Scan Sonar
Compact, Cost-Effective Side‑Scan Sonar
AS900 is a multi‑frequency, optionally embedded or externally mounted side‑scan sonar, specifically designed for various unmanned underwater platforms such as AUVs, ROVs, underwater gliders, and unmanned surface vessels (USVs).
The AS900 side‑scan sonar is the first to adopt adaptive waveform adjustment technology, combined with broadband signal processing and image equalization techniques. It delivers clear imaging of various small underwater targets and complex structures, making it suitable for a wide range of applications including underwater detection, emergency response, and public safety operations.
The AS900 side‑scan sonar is available in multiple versions, including standard and customized editions. It is compatible with a wide range of ROV platforms — from large, medium, and small to micro‑scale, whether integrated, frame‑mounted, or adapted to irregular structures. The system supports diverse missions such as emergency search and rescue in inland lakes, reservoirs, and waterways; structural inspection of dams and hydropower facilities; as well as pipeline route surveys in offshore wind farm projects.
SeaRobotix has integrated it into small and medium‑sized underwater robotic systems such as FindROV and BlueROV, enabling high‑definition underwater scanning and imaging — a powerful aid for ocean exploration.
A New Era in Underwater Detection
Easy to Integrate and Apply for Secondary Development
To meet diverse user needs, it provides standardized mounting structures and electrical interfaces, enabling integration with various small to medium‑sized underwater robots for portable applications across different water environments, and is compatible with FindROV/BlueROV systems.
Miniaturized All‑in‑One Design, Plug‑and‑Play
Compact size, light weight, low power consumption, simple structure, and user‑friendly operation enable plug‑and‑play functionality, allowing even inexperienced users to get started quickly.
High‑Definition
Imaging
By combining an entirely new transducer structure design with the latest adaptive waveform adjustment technology, along with integrated broadband signal processing and image equalization techniques, it achieves wide‑area, clear scanning and imaging.
Application Scenarios
(1) Emergency Response – Large‑scale search for drowning victims, vehicles, and objects using ROVs
(2) Hydraulic Infrastructure Inspection – Wide‑area scanning of hydraulic facilities and dam structures with ROVs
(3) Offshore Wind & Oil & Gas – Inspection of subsea pipelines, foundations, and structures
(4) Marine Ranching & Aquaculture – Asset assessment and measurement using underwater ROVs
(5) University Teaching & Scientific Research – Large‑scale sonar image acquisition of underwater targets
Clear Imaging — An Essential Tool for Exploration
The AS900 can be easily mounted on the side of underwater robots such as BlueROV2 and FindROV, enabling flexible and convenient seabed imaging!
Underwater Exploration — Launching Now
By carrying equipment such as FindROV or BlueROV, users can quickly deploy an ROV upon arriving at the worksite to perform measurement, mapping, and other tasks.
