Doppler Velocity Log
Teledyne RDI’s Doppler Velocity Log (DVL) is a multi-function Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) acoustic sensor that provides highly accurate velocity information. In addition to providing speed over ground and speed through water, the instrument uses other sensors to provide position updates for both subsea and surface platforms. The DVL provides information by collecting, compiling, and processing a full suite of data parameters which include Velocity, Depth, Pitch, Roll, Altitude, Heading and Temperature
The DVL can be used as a stand-alone navigation system or incorporated into an existing marine navigation system to significantly enhance system performance. To view more information click here.
Pathfinder DVL
Teledyne RD Instruments’ highly compact 600 kHz Pathfinder DVL is small in size and huge on value. Derived from Teledyne RD Instrumets long-standing, highly reliable DVL technology, this system delivers the precision navigation performance you’ve come to expect from Teledyne RDI, at a price point, size, and weight that’s ideally suited for your next application.
Pioneer DVL
Designed with unmanned and remotely operated vehicles in mind, the Pioneer DVLs are available in 150kHz and 38kHz options. These powerful DVLs can be leveraged for surface and subsurface manned and unmanned vessels. Utilizing state-of-the-art electronics, Pioneer DVLs provide an array of advanced internal sensors and offer expanded connectivity with external sensors, while minimizing overall power consumption.
The Pioneer DVLs combine Teledyne RDIs proven bottom detection algorithms and single ping bottom location accuracy with its broadband velocity processing technology, providing users with highly reliable precision velocity data for navigation and position processing, even over indeterminate terrain. Pioneer DVLs are available in self-contained and remote head configurations.
