Sonardyne, has announced the launch of its new Origin Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCPs) at Ocean Business 2023. A leading provider of underwater acoustic technology Sonardyne, has designed the ADCPs to be ideally suited to a wide range of applications, including marine research, offshore renewable energy and defense.

  • Simple to operate
  • Class leading data results
  • Integrated communications & positioning

The new Origin ADCPs feature several innovations including an integrated modem for communications and positioning, and new Edge processing capability and ecosystem that enables users to write their own apps for specific projects.

In addition to the industry standard PD0, Sonardyne’s new and exclusive A-gram and B-gram proprietary data formats offer up to ten times greater spatial resolution to produce astonishing data sets.

Origin 600

Origin 600 has a five-beam configuration with a central vertical beam. Paired with a maximum sampling frequency of 4Hz on all beams, it’s suitable for waves and turbulence applications, as well as mean currents. Combining field proven transducers with an integrated modem, internal rechargeable battery and Edge processing, Origin 600 expands ADCP capability for acquiring mid-range current profiles.

Origin 65

Origin 65 boasts a unique acoustic design that increases robustness, reduces cost, and all the while maintains outstanding current profiling performance. The integrated modem allows for remote actions, whilst the PIES functionality delivers high-precision time-of-flight and average in-situ sound velocity data.

We are excited to launch our new Origin ADCP family at Ocean Business 2023. This new product represents a significant advance in ocean current profiling technology. It will provide our customers with the highest quality data, specifically tailored to their needs, in the most challenging of environments.” said Geraint West, Head of Science at Sonardyne
