Teledyne BlueView BV5000: 3D Multibeam Scanning Sonar

The Underwater "Laser Scanner" for High-Resolution 3D Mapping

Product Overview 

The Teledyne BlueView BV5000 (now in its MK2 generation) is a specialized 3D mechanical scanning sonar that functions much like a topographic laser scanner, but for subsea environments. By combining a high-frequency multibeam profiler with a precision pan-and-tilt mechanism, it generates dense, high-resolution 3D point clouds of underwater structures, even in zero-visibility conditions.

It is highly versatile, capable of being deployed on a tripod for stationary high-precision scans or integrated onto an ROV for inspecting complex assets from multiple angles.
