FarSounder 3D Sonar Integrated into Wärtsilä SAM Electronics' NACOS Platinum Series
FarSounder, USA, has entered into an integration partnership with Wärtsilä SAM Electronics. 3D sonar data from FarSounder’s navigation systems can now be visualised and controlled directly from all NACOS MULTIPILOT workstations. The forward-looking capabilities of FarSounder's navigation products add a new dimension of situational awareness to the NACOS Platinum Series.
Cheryl M. Zimmerman, FarSounder's CEO, explained that after working with Wärtsilä SAM Electronics for many years on common navigation projects, this integration will be opening new opportunities for both companies. She anticipates that FarSounder sonar bring an added safety tool to the NACOS Platinum platform. This is important in polar areas, shallow waters and other challenging environments.
