The Role of Sonar The applications for diver Kongsberg Mesotech Imaging detection sonar have TM expanded from early The DDS 9000 Series use by the military for the Search & Recovery Mine Counter Measures Diver Detection Sonar protection of major assets. Today, active sonar is utilized in a range of military, government, law enforcement, and industrial applications. Despite the challenges posed by The evolution environmental conditions, active high- sonar remains the method of choice for diver of underwater detection systems. security. Value The DDS 9000 is the fi rst COTS diver detection system to break through the Department of Homeland Security’s low cost Pier Inspection Hull Inspection goal of less than $100,000 per 1,000 feet of protected shoreline. The DDS 9000 Series provides increased functionality, is easier to use, and is one third the of competitive 360° systems. DDS 9000 systems provide additional value through their versatility, being easily re-confi gured for new missions.
