At Water Linked, we believe underwater vision shouldn’t stop when your camera does. That’s why we developed the Sonar 3D-15—an advanced 3D multibeam imaging sonar that enhances spatial awareness, even in zero-visibility conditions. Now, upgrading your underwater vehicle with 3D sonar imaging has never been easier. We’ve released step-by-step integration guides for some of the most popular ROVs on the market.
Whether you're working in murky harbors, performing subsea inspections, or navigating around infrastructure, real-time 3D sonar gives you the edge. These new guides help you mount, configure, and operate the Sonar 3D-15 seamlessly—so you can focus on your mission instead of troubleshooting.
Sonar 3D-15 + Deep Trekker Pivot
Already known for simplifying subsea work, Deep Trekker ROVs become even more effective when equipped with the real-time 3D vision of our Sonar 3D-15. Their Pivot ROV is known for its compact power and maneuverability—adding the Sonar 3D-15 boosts its capability even further.
Sonar 3D-15 + BlueROV2
Blue Robotics is on a mission to enable the future of marine robotics. Integrating the Sonar 3D-15 on their affordable and highly customizable BlueROV2 is a next logical step.
Sonar 3D-15 + Blueye X3
Blueye is your eyes below the surface. With 3D sonar technology, these eyes will continue to see, even when the cameras won't. Built for inspections in challenging conditions, the Blueye X3 ROV is a natural match for our 3D sonar. The result? Safer, more efficient operations when visibility is limited.
Sonar 3D-15 + Chasing M2 Pro Max
Few ROVs look as sleek with our sonar attached as the Chasing M2 Pro Max—but this integration isn’t just about looks. It’s designed for ease of use and powerful results. The M2 Pro Max is widely used in industries like aquaculture, infrastructure, and environmental monitoring, and our Sonar 3D-15 makes it even more mission-ready.
Custom integration with our API
Looking to build a custom interface or integrate sonar data into your own tools? The Sonar 3D-15 comes with an Integration API designed for efficiency and flexibility. Using a low-bandwidth Range Image Protocol (RIP1), the API enables real-time access to 3D point cloud data or 2D monochrome bitmap views. Whether you're visualizing live, analyzing trends, or archiving data for later use, the API makes it easy to interface with third-party software and systems. It's ideal for researchers, developers, and innovators who want full control over their subsea data pipeline.
