Compact Power: Meet the Sonar 3D-15 by Water Linked
The Sonar 3D-15 is a lightweight, compact 3D sonar that gives ROV operators clear, real-time visibility—even in zero-visibility conditions. With a 15-meter range, wide 90°x40° field of view, and depth rating down to 300 meters, it’s a game-changer for compact ROV operations.
Small Size, Serious Performance
Weighing just under 400 grams in water and measuring about 12x8x4 cm, the Sonar 3D-15 is ideal for small to mid-size ROVs. It’s especially useful when space and weight are limited but clear underwater imaging is still a must. Perfect match for many of the compact ROV platforms we build and integrate here at Astral Subsea.
Live 3D Imaging — Even in Murky Waters
The sonar delivers a real-time 3D image of the underwater environment, making it easier to navigate, map, or inspect areas with poor visibility. It offers a 90° horizontal and 40° vertical field of view, with a max scanning range of 15 meters (in navigation mode) and 4 meters (in inspection mode). No post-processing required—what you see is what you get.
Easy to Use & Integrate
No need for extra software—just connect via your browser and start working. The sonar also includes a developer-friendly API for those who want to integrate it with other systems or tailor the interface to their needs.
Built for Real-World Tasks
This sonar fits right into a wide range of missions:
Infrastructure inspections: bridges, docks, pipelines
Search and recovery in poor visibility
3D seabed mapping and terrain modeling
Navigating tight or complex underwater spaces
Get It Through Astral Subsea
