HQ-400 Multibeam Echosounder

The HQ-400 is a lightweight and portable multibeam echosounder that is ideal for a range of USVs (uncrewed surface vessels), collecting high-resolution data for precise and accurate bathymetric and hydrographic surveys. The all-in-one system integrates sonar, temperature sensors, compass and pre-calibrated IMU into a single unit, and offers flexible installation options for quick and easy setup and deployment.

With accurate depth measurement and compensation for roll, pitch, and yaw, the HQ-400 enhances the quality and reliability of survey data. The system provides a range of advanced features including tilt measurement, real-time roll stabilization, near-field focusing, and water column imaging.
