state-of-the-art multibeam sonar system specifically designed for bathymetric surveys, construction surveys, and Uncrewed surface Vehicle type surveys. This compact, ultra-high-resolution curved array sonar is tightly integrated with GNSS/INS (Applanix OceanMaster), making it ideal for use in demanding operational environments such as under bridges or in rough sea conditions. Its small form factor and low power consumption enable easy installation on various surface survey platforms, from small unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) to large vessel permanent hull mounts.
Supported by DCT (NORBIT Integrated Data Acquisition Software) for efficient survey data acquisition.
Key Features Include:
• Ultra High Resolution: 0.5×0.9-degree beam width
• True 1024 Beams Beamformer: For precise data
• Industry-Leading Acoustic Robustness: Reliable performance in diverse conditions
• Advanced GNSS/INS: High-end positioning systems
• Integrated Real-Time Sound Velocity: For accurate depth measurements
• Pipeline Mode: Specialized for pipeline and cable inspection
• Portable and Lightweight: Easy to deploy and transport
About the NORBIT WINGHEAD Sonar series
The NORBIT WINGHEAD series introduces the first cylindrical ultra-high-resolution curved array bathymetric system, designed for rapid mobilisation anywhere and anytime. Featuring the industry’s highest standards in integrated GNSS/INS positioning systems, these sonars are based on a state-of-the-art analogue and digital platform with powerful signal processing capabilities. They provide roll-stabilized bathymetry, high-quality imagery, and backscatter outputs, ensuring top-tier survey data performance. NORBIT’s broad R&D expertise has led to the development of this innovative technology, expanding the applications of compact wideband curved-array multibeam sonar systems.
Applications Include:
• Shallow Water Bathymetry
• Pipeline & Cable Inspection Surveys
• Quay Wall, Bridge, and Structure Inspection Surveys
• Pond, River, and Estuary Surveys
• Harbour and Lake Surveys
• USV & UUV Operations
• Coastal Surveys
