BODAMM

Product catalog summary
Overview
The BODAMM system is designed for the detection and location of unexploded ordnance (UXO) and submarine cables that are partially or fully buried. It utilizes a combination of acoustic and magnetic methods to achieve this.

System Components
  • An Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) equipped with a Klein3500 dual frequency side scan sonar operating at 450-900kHz.
  • A sub-bottom sounding system with a low-frequency acoustic transmitter and a 16-element receiving antenna, managed by the Rtsys electronic card SDA416.
  • A gradiometer magnetometer for detecting buried metallic elements.

Data Processing
The system records and georeferences acoustic and magnetic data simultaneously. Post-acquisition processing provides detailed images of sedimentary layers and anomalies such as UXO and cables.

Advantages
  • Combines acoustic and magnetic sensors for enhanced detection capabilities.
  • Independent operation of each system component.

Applications
  • Detection of unexploded ordnance (UXO).
  • Submarine cable detection.
  • Metal object detection.
  • Sea bed analysis.

Technical Specifications
  • Length: AUV - 2.20 m, Antenna - 10 m.
  • Weight (in air): 45 kg + 15 kg.
  • Operational Depth: Up to 300 m.
  • Speed: 2 to 10 knots.
  • Autonomy: Up to 8 hours.

Additional Features
  • Acoustic reception antenna with 16 hydrophones and neutral buoyancy.
  • Magnetometer module with a 1 m cable and Windows OS for acquisition.
  • Compact and easy deployment from small boats due to its manageable size and weight.
  • High precision and reliability in scanning tracks with reduced track spacing over wide areas.
  • AR2E box for acoustic and magnetic data acquisition with neutral buoyancy.

BODAMM-1

Description Advantages BODAMM system detects and locates UXO (UneXploded Object) and submarine cables partially or fully buried. BODAMM consists of three independent elements: • An AUV equipped with Klein3500 dual frequency side scan sonar (450-900kHz). • A sub bottom sounding system composed of low frequency acoustic transmitter and a 16 elements receiving antenna, controled by the Rtsys electronic card SDA416. • A gradiometer magnetometer for the detection of buried metallic elements. Acoustics & magnetics data flow is recorded and georeferenced simultaneously. Data is post-acquisition processed and provides an accurate image of the sedimentary layers and anomalies (UXO, cables, ...). • Combination of acoustic and magnetic sensors for detection • Fusion of information extracted from magnetic and acoustic sensors • Each element of the system is independent Applications • UXO detection • Cable detection • Metal object detection • Sea bed analysis Payloads & options Powered by • Side scan sonar • Gradiometer • Sedimentary Sounder Characteristics • Lenght: AUV-2,20 m Antenna-10 m • Weight(air): 45 kg + 15 kg • Depth: 300 m • Speed: 2 a 10 Knots RTsys - Underwater Acoustics & Drones +33(0)297 898 580 - [email protected]
