Sonar Systems Help Propel Unmanned Underwater Vehicles

Naval Mines Present a Grave Hazard
Scanning the seabed for mines is a dangerous proposition. For generations, specialized vessels with hull-mounted or towed sonar sensors have put personnel at risk. But unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) change the way the game is played. To ensure their performance, Mercury must help sharpen the cutting edge in military sonar subsystems.

UUV Sonar Application-Ready Subsystem
As a business partner to the primes, Mercury is well-versed in the concept and deployment of multi-INT subsystems. Recently, we used that expertise to help a key customer solve a complex signal processing challenge through embedded sonar computing and our services and systems integration. Now sonar-equipped UUVs can detect and destroy mines with greater efficiency — and at a reduced risk to human lives.
