The BlueRobotics Ping Sonar Altimeter and Echosounder is a single-beam echosounder that measures distances up to 30 meters (100 feet) underwater.
A 30-degree beam width, 300 meters (984 foot) depth rating, and open-source software interface make it a powerful tool for marine robotics.
The Ping sonar is a multipurpose single-beam echosounder. It can be used as an altimeter for ROVs and AUVs, for bathymetry work aboard a USV, as an obstacle avoidance sonar, and more. Ping combines a compact form factor and 300-meter depth rating with an open source user interface and development libraries to create a powerful new tool for marine robotics!
An echosounder, like the Ping, is one of the simplest forms of sonar. It operates by using a piezoelectric transducer to send an acoustic pulse into the water and then listens back for echoes to return. With that information, it’s able to determine the distance to the strongest echo, which is usually the ocean floor or a large object.
