Baywei M5
M5 Integrated Multibeam Sonar
M5 is a highly-versatile, high-resolution multibeam echo sounder, which is also extremely simple to use and to install on the vehicle. The tightly coupled GNSS INS makes it easy to integrate even on ultra-small vehicles and very quick to mobilize. Its hydrodynamic form factor and its low power consumption makes it the perfect choice for small autonomous surface vehicles, data acquisition included.
