New Kongsberg acoustic positioning system
Norway’s Kongsberg Maritime has extended its range of acoustic positioning systems with introduction of µPAP, a compact and portable unit for operation from surface vessels to track ROVs, tow fish, divers and other subsea targets at depths down to 4,000m. Operating in either SSBL (super short baseline) or LBL (long baseline) modes, it measures distance and direction to subsea transponders while computing 3D position in local or geographical coordinates.
