Pyxis combines factory-calibrated USBL acoustic tracking with the SBG Navsight Apogee Marine inertial navigation system. It supports ROV, AUV and towfish positioning, with directional and omnidirectional transceiver configurations for different survey conditions. Explore system integration, acoustic coverage and model-specific performance.
Easytrak Nexus 2 is a survey-grade USBL system for tracking subsea targets using Sigma 2 spread-spectrum acoustics. It supports up to 16 targets, with transceiver options selected for the required range and acoustic coverage. Survey functions include navigation overlays, logging, replay and calibration support for compatible installations.
Applied Acoustics Easytrak USBL systems track underwater vehicles, towfish, divers and survey equipment. Compare Vesta, Nexus 2 Lite, Nexus 2 and Pyxis INS + USBL configurations by acoustic range, coverage, accuracy and target capacity. Compatible beacons, navigation inputs and survey accessories complete the positioning package.
Applied Acoustics 1300 Micro Beacon is an acoustic transponder family for compact ROVs, divers and lightweight towed sensors. Used with a compatible USBL system, the beacon allows a surface vessel to track the position of the submerged target. It is selected as part of the complete positioning chain, including the vessel transceiver, navigation inputs and the mechanical installation on the target.
Applied Acoustics acoustic positioning beacons support diver, ROV, towfish and seabed tracking. Compare 1300 Micro, 1100 Mini, 1130 Midi, 1160 Fatboy and 1150 Seabed models for working depth, deployment duration and USBL compatibility.
Applied Acoustics 1500 Series acoustic releases support recovery of subsea instruments and moorings. Compare 1519, 1529P and 1559 models, release loads, survival depths and PAM 3515 control options.
Applied Acoustics marine seismic equipment includes HydraSeis acquisition systems, Dura-Spark sparkers, boomers, CSP power supplies, hydrophone streamers and source positioning for offshore site investigations.
Applied Acoustics MiniPod GNSS supports surface positioning of seismic sources, streamer heads and tails, and marine vehicles. Configurable receivers, RTK and PPP corrections, telemetry and submersible housings suit different survey operations.
Complete an Applied Acoustics survey system with PAM 3515 testing and configuration, compatible chargers and cables, MiniPod telemetry, Easytrak positioning software and geophysical acquisition components.
Applied Acoustics Dura-Spark UHD is a sparker seismic source for high and ultra-high resolution marine geophysical surveys. Its durable electrodes generate a repeatable acoustic pulse for imaging sediment layers beneath the seabed. The source is available with 240 or 400 tips, allowing the survey team to select an arrangement around the required energy, vessel equipment and investigation objectives.
Applied Acoustics HydraSeis is a modular digital seismic streamer system for ultra-high resolution marine geophysical acquisition. In-water 24-bit analogue-to-digital conversion and a network connection to the console support low-noise recording across multiple channels. The system is designed around 12- or 24-channel active sections, with configurations for both 2D and 3D surveys.
Applied Acoustics S-Boom is a high-power boomer source for high and ultra-high resolution sub-bottom surveys. Three AA252 plates form a focused source arrangement that delivers a repeatable pulse. The system provides an alternative to sparkers for suitable coastal and offshore projects, including freshwater and low-salinity environments.
Applied Acoustics 1100 Mini Beacon is an acoustic transponder family for ROV tracking and general subsea survey equipment. Used with a compatible USBL system, the beacon allows a surface vessel to track the position of the submerged target. It is selected as part of the complete positioning chain, including the vessel transceiver, navigation inputs and the mechanical installation on the target.
Applied Acoustics 1130 Midi Beacon is an acoustic transponder family for deep-water ROV operations and subsea instrument tracking. Used with a compatible USBL system, the beacon allows a surface vessel to track the position of the submerged target. It is selected as part of the complete positioning chain, including the vessel transceiver, navigation inputs and the mechanical installation on the target.
Applied Acoustics 1160 Fatboy Beacon is an acoustic transponder family for deep-water tracking and acoustically challenging survey operations. Used with a compatible USBL system, the beacon allows a surface vessel to track the position of the submerged target. It is selected as part of the complete positioning chain, including the vessel transceiver, navigation inputs and the mechanical installation on the target.
Applied Acoustics 1150 Seabed Beacon is an acoustic transponder family for long-term seabed reference points and USBL calibration work. Used with a compatible USBL system, the beacon allows a surface vessel to track the position of the submerged target. It is selected as part of the complete positioning chain, including the vessel transceiver, navigation inputs and the mechanical installation on the target.
