Garmin International Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd., today announced that its popular Panoptix all-seeing sonar technology is now available with a thru-hull mounting installation, an ideal sonar solution for coastal fishermen with larger boats.
Analogic Corporation, enabling the world's medical imaging and aviation security technology, today announced the launch of the bk5000™ Ultrasound System, the newest addition to its flagship BK Ultrasound brand products.
DAS technology involves the use of optoelectronic devices to detect acoustic energy by employing an optical fiber which functions as a sensing element. The technology has the capability to detect the change, pinpoint the location of the disturbance, and identify its nature. This enables the detection of the cause of the disturbance even if the event causing the disturbance is not in direct contact with the fiber optic cable. This technology is being used for a number of applications across verticals such as military, infrastructure, oil & gas, and transportation.
Sonitor Technologies, the global Real-Time Location System (RTLS) technology leader, announced today that it is a sponsor of the Intelligent InSites Inc. annual InSites Build Conference to be held on September 28-30, 2015, in Fargo, ND.
The Global Ultrasonic Sensors market is expected to increase to $0.63 billion by 2018 at a CAGR of 15.78% over the period 2015-2020. Ultrasonic sensors are widely used in various medical inspections including prenatal examinations to which radiography cannot be applied.
Reverberated sound can make objects visible. The sonar is used in the shipping industry to acquire information about the seabed or shoals of fish, while gynaecologists use ultrasound images to study foetuses in the womb. Material testing procedures that regularly check for fissures in rail tracks or aircraft support structures are also based on ultrasound.
The U.S. Navy has awarded Raytheon Company (NYSE: RTN) a $33 million contract for the production, integration, testing and delivery of AN/AQS-22 Airborne Low Frequency Sonar (ALFS) systems.
