About
About Ping DSP
Ping DSP develops three-dimensional sonar for subsea survey, inspection and navigation. Its 3DSS family transmits and receives multiple acoustic beams to produce georeferenced bathymetry and imagery from ROVs, AUVs and surface vessels.
Compact systems combine the sonar head, processing electronics and software for real-time visualisation and post-processing. Wide swaths and volumetric data help operators inspect structures, map seabeds and understand complex targets where optical visibility is poor. Configurations can integrate inertial navigation, sound-velocity and positioning inputs, supporting both piloted inspection and autonomous vehicle workflows.

Events
- 2024-01-08 - Partnership - Ping DSP shows Seaber YUCO AUV 3DSS sonar integration
Ping DSP displayed a Seaber YUCO mock-up with an integrated 3DSS sonar module at HYPACK 2024. The companies described the configuration as a new collaboration rather than an established commercial supply programme. The integrated product was still in development,with a launch anticipated later in 2024.
