Type A advanced passive hydrophone
Type A is an advanced passive hydrophone with the capability to detect underwater threats across the frequency range (2Hz to 100kHz). Its state-of-the-art BaTiO3 perovskite composition along with its self-hardened polyester covering allows for high degrees of sensitivity along with mass deployment scalability dynamics.
Balancing sensitivity, the uncertainty of measurement, and frequency dependence at a scalable level
The current state-of-the-art hydrophone technologies (piezoelectric, electrostatic, magnetostrictive, moving magnet/coil) face a pressing trade-off on how to balance the degrees of sensitivity and uncertainty of measurement, all at a cost that could enable mass deployment opportunities.
FEATURES
Compact circular (R=30 mm) sensing element size
Linear range: 2Hz to 100kHz ±2dB
Survival Depth: 300m
In situ digitization and amplification circuit option for utilization of the complete acoustic sensing data created
Operating temperature range: -10°C to +80°C
Ready to deploy and connect to an onshore laptop via Audio-jack
VERTICAL DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT
Innovating on the sensing element and packaging components
Type A is designed and developed at the SOTIRIA lab to fit critical underwater Defense and Security missions. The innovation is composed of the novel sensing element configuration, the tailored, in-situ digitization and amplification circuit as well as the water-proof covering which allows for easy on-the-field deployment.
AI CONNECTION READY
Type A is built to easily connect via Audio-jack to an on-shore laptop, where the acoustic data are ingested in SOTIRIA Technology’s Dioptre. There they are processed with custom Machine Learning algorithms for improved levels of sensing, detection, and classification.
