Phased Array transducers deliver enhanced position acuracy at a reduced size, eliminates the need for speed of sound correction, and reduces susceptibility to biofouling
Bottom-tracking capability for deep water operations
Compact size
Multiple communications channels
Self-contained or remote-head options
Advanced AHRS IMU for accurate vehicle attitude correction
Leak detection and monitoring
Trandsducer and system health monitoring
New optional XRT (Extended Range Tracking) delivers up to a 60% increase in bottom tracking range
Upgradable to include ADCP capability
Dynamic commands capability allows command changes during operation without the need to stop the ping cycle or operation of the DVL
Bottom-track high resolution velocity and navigation parameters data blocks aid in the velocity measurement resolution and quality information for use in an Ex-tended Kalman Filter (EKF) Inertial Navigation System (INS) solution
Time of validity output provides highly accurate coupling with an INS further improving resulting DVL aided INS position accuracy
Low latency trigger mitigates interference with other SONARs
Designed with unmanned and remotely operated vehicles in mind, the Pioneer DVLs are available in 150kHz and 38kHz options. These powerful DVLs can be leveraged for surface and subsurface manned and unmanned vessels. Utilizing state-of-the-art electronics, Pioneer DVLs provide an array of advanced internal sensors and offer expanded connectivity with external sensors, while minimizing overall power consumption.
