Frequently Asked Questions

▶

What software is required to operate this sonar?

This sonar kit connects to the open-source Ping-Viewer application. This software provides the interface for control and data display, allowing users to view real-time acoustic images and customize settings for specific application needs.

Can this sonar be used in murky or low-visibility water?

Yes, it is specifically designed for low-visibility conditions. Because it uses acoustic waves rather than light, it can 'see' through sediment and darkness to provide clear imaging for navigation and obstacle avoidance.

What is the maximum depth this sonar can reach?

The Chasing Ping 360 Sonar has a professional pressure rating of 300 meters (984 feet), making it suitable for deep-water inspections and research missions.
