FN Archimer Export Format PT C TI Hypson 400, a real time panoramic sonar. BT AF MONSAINGEON, L AS 1:; FF 1:; UR https://archimer.ifremer.fr/doc/1990/acte-1156.pdf LA English DT Proceedings paper DE ;Instruments;Sonar imagery;Marine technology AB The search for a panoramic, real-time, high frequency sonar has been a major goal for operating ranges where optical systems have established limitations. HYPSON 400 meets such requirements and provides a simultaneous and continuous beam-forming, no-scanning, wide opening system, using a hybrid beam-forming technique allowed by new component technologies. Up to seven images per second can be formed at a range of 100 meters, and more at shorter distances, as allowed by the speed of sound, thus providing the highest possible rate of information renewal required by operations at sea.
