The WBMS Forward-Looking Sonar (FLS) series by NORBIT delivers ultra-compact, high-performance underwater sonar imaging for both mobile and stationary maritime platfor

Built on a flexible sonar architecture and powered by advanced wideband multibeam sonar technology, these systems provide real-time, long-range imaging with industry-leading range resolution—revealing fine underwater detail across diverse maritime applications.

Whether for underwater inspection, subsea construction, defence and security, or exploration, this curved-array multibeam sonar system supports both established and emerging applications with exceptional performance.

As a compact forward-looking sonar, the WBMS FLS series is ideal for navigation safety, obstacle detection and tracking with NORBIT’s GUARDPOINT Software, terrain avoidance, and situational awareness in both shallow and deep water. The WBMS family of FLS Sonars are well suited for many platforms including crewed platforms, UUV, USV, or fixed installations for remote monitoring.

The WBMS FLS provides a simple interface for both operators and autonomous vehicle computer systems. The WBMS FLS has a minimal footprint required for cabling and mechanical mounting. The WBMS FLS is capable of operations up to 6000 meters depth and provides maximum flexibility for projects that require variable depth requirements.
