iXBlue GAPS USBL

iXBlue GAPS USBL

The iXBlue fourth-generation pre-calibrated GAPS combines high-performance ultra-short baseline (USBL) and a fiberoptic inertial navigation system (INS) in the same housing to provide accurate position of any subsea object, in diverse and challenging environments. Its performance ranges from extremely shallow water to deep sea. It's compact and all in-one design allows both portable and permanent installations. One of GAPS key new features is support of dynamic positioning (DP).

 

FEATURES

• Integrates USBL, high-grade INS, real-time positioning and GPS

• Position accuracy: 0.06% x slant range

• Advanced signal processing and 3D acoustic antenna for range and accuracy performance

• Powerful dynamic positioning (DP) mode (L/USBL/INS)

 

BENEFITS

• Cost- and time-saving deployment: flexible, portable, pre-calibrated, rapid, and simple

• Robust performance in very shallow water (10 m depth) to long range (> 4000 m depth) • Deployment options, from surface buoy, side pole, moon pool or hull mounted

• Universal utilization Gaps Fourth-generation usbl acoustic positioning system

 

APPLICATIONS

• Offshore, AUV and ROV navigation • Underwater survey and inspection • Drilling • Dynamic positioning (DP) • Structure placement • Pipeline and cable deployment • Diver tracking • Seismic • Ocean science • Defense • Renewable energy industries
