Yes blueview is a very nice sonar works very
well, I was very
impressed with the mercury unit as well I have the mercury
unit on our Hyball
and it seems to be working pretty well, the sonar not the
hyball the hyball has
a few problems with the topside unit I am trying to work
thru, had I fell
stronger today I probably would have throw it overboard but
it was too much
work getting to the rail, but if it was easy everyone would
be doing it, the
computer I am building will be running a windows based
software mostly because of
the availability of applications.
The Bluefin AUV has an SAS system onboard and the
was an impressive
sonar for imaging I had the opportunity to see the SS
Portland wreck via the
SAS sonar and detail is unbelievable.
Andy where you referring to the tritech Gemini ?
I have seen
some screen shots very impressive that’s my only complaint
with blueview its
such a narrow window

The
BlueView is Ethernet. Not sure about the scanning
sonar, but most scanning sonars I've seen are rs-232 or
rs-485.
BlueView has a nice C/C++ SDK so integration into custom 3rd
part apps is
pretty easy.
If you really want to get blown away then you need to check
out the 130 deg
view angle sonars. You almost don't need a view port/camera
at that
point...almost.

Both units use a very simple serial port interface into a laptop and a very small program to run it I am also working on a computer that when finished will be 2 inches by 4 inches by 4 inches with a 13" screen to run them in the sub and the keyboard will be an IPhone it will also have a digital direction tilt and yaw sensor in it, I got the Idea from edgetech side scan sonar we had our's factory serviced and they replaced all the components which still worked just not able to run the new version of software so I started playing around built a case and installed the compass in the same case it runs on 12 volts uses a 500gig laptop drive I will have about 200 dollars in it less the Iphone, so to answer your question it's very easy to use the data

I am very jealous!
Could you tell us a little about the systems? Are these units displaying
data on a laptop/desktop system or on a dedicated display? How hard would
it be to get the data out of the sonar system for use in a third party
application?
Cheers!
Ian.
