DeepEye DE340D
DeepEye DE340D
A 340 kHz digital chirp side-scan sonar for seabed reconnaissance and underwater target searches. The documented DE340D configuration prioritises wider coverage, making it a useful reference model when comparing survey range against image detail.

System configuration
The documented system combines a towfish, surface unit, deck cable, tow cable and a PC running DeepView. Match cable length and towing geometry to the working depth; a pressure rating is not a guarantee of achievable towing depth.
