Description
You can observe echos from objects like ropes, walls, dock pilings, shipwrecks, boats, fish, and any other structures or objects that reflect sound waves. The generated image provides a compelling reference for navigation regardless of water visibility, allowing for the localization of essential features quickly.
The Insight-240 is a 240 kHz, 150m range, 300m depth rated system. For general purpose applications, a mounting bracket incorporating a servo tilt mechanism is highly recommended.
