Sonardyne's calibration-free acoustic positioning delivers major savings

摘要

CSA International Inc, an environmental survey company working in the Gulf of Mexico, has become the first organisation in the world to purchase a new, 'calibration-free' acoustic positioning system launched by Sonardyne International. The GyroUSBL integrates Sonardyne's Lodestar Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS) and sixth generation (6G) Ultra-Short BaseLine (USBL) transceiver into a single unit and was shown to offer significant operational benefits during a deepwater ROV survey carried out this summer.
