Sonar transducer technology
Industrial Research has developed numerous sonar ultrasonic transducer designs and has experience in manufacture of custom small-run designs. Sparse designs for 2D and 3D sounding are under development.
This is an enabler to cost effective single and multi-channel sonar systems as high-value products.
Transducer capability and research includes:
- single frequency
- dual frequency
- wide-band
- traditional arrays, ULA, rectangular
- sparse arrays
- split aperture
- controlled resonance properties
- matching layers and potting materials.
Co-design with the hardware and signal processing allows maximum innovation and compatibility with electronics design and implementation.
