A high resolution, real time 3D-acoustical imaging system
article
As visualization tool on automotive controlled ROV’s a real time acoustical imaging system provides a wider range of applications. However, the complexity of the system will increase with the required performance. New processing algorithms have to be developed for beamforming and imageforming in parallel processing. The spatial Fourier domain is suitable for doing the real time focussing and the imaging. Innovation in the design of a 2D—transducer array and the frontend electronics is necessary to be able to manufacture this system. The amount of data is increasing enormously by going to 3D—imaging. Flexibility in the processing hardware enables a reduction of dataflow by a user defined presentation of data.
