Side Scan Sonar

Display Processor Systems

Coda Octopus Colmek is a leading provider of image processing hardware, software and systems to meet the evolving technological requirements of a wide range of scientific, military and commercial users. In 1980 it became apparent the approach of utilizing analog techniques to process and display data, primarily sonar data, left much to be desired. The resolution and dynamic range of the raw data could not be displayed real time or printed on existing equipment. Coda Octopus Colmek embarked on an aggressive program to develop a Digital Side-Scan Sonar Imaging Display. Since then, Coda Octopus Colmek has become the premier supplier of sophisticated image processing systems to the R & D and government communities. From 1985 to present, Coda Octopus Colmek has designed and manufactured 123 Digital Sonar/Video and Side Scan Sonar Display Systems.

Coda Octopus Colmek has designed and manufactured all of the Digital Sonar Processors utilized in the upgraded version of the AN/AQS-14A program and the Remote Minehunting System (RMS) program. Since 1993, Coda Octopus Colmek has delivered a total of 49 Digital Processors and Display Systems to this program. The operational systems are utilized in helicopter environments, shore based installations and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles for real-time data acquisition and processing and post processing applications.
