Validated at sea: HISAS2020 delivers on its promise
The evolution of subsea technology takes a significant leap with the introduction of HISAS2020, a standalone solution from KONGSBERG. Following extensive success with the HUGIN AUV family in thousands of missions, HISAS2020 is now positioned to provide operators with centimeter-level insight across a range of platforms, including AUVs, UUVs, USVs, ROVs, towfish, submarines, surface vessels, and other specialized equipment.
This innovation enhances subsea situational awareness, emphasizing the critical relationship between data quality and operational effectiveness. HISAS2020 empowers operators with superior capabilities to detect smaller objects, accurately classify targets, and comprehend seabed contexts, all while converting acoustic returns into actionable insights more swiftly. Its compact design, along with digital transducers and standard underwater cabling, ensures low power consumption and minimizes integration complexities.
The application of HISAS2020 extends across various sectors, including defense, energy, and ocean science. It enhances the effectiveness of missions such as mine countermeasures, inspections of critical underwater infrastructure, harbor protection, target identification, environmental monitoring, and detailed seabed mapping. As HISAS2020 transitions from potential to proof, it solidifies the groundwork for the next generation of subsea situational awareness.
