Skate - Underwater Laser
The Skate is an underwater laser designed for 3D modeling applications that require a very narrow and uniform beam width. It is available with line laser or grid laser options.
-
Small 1.5″ diameter
-
Standard Titanium 6500m depth rating
-
Dimmable 50mW output
-
Generates a sharp line with a fan angle of 53.9° in water
The Skate Line Laser can be controlled in two modes:
-
TTL for On/Off up to 1000hz
-
RS232 with dimming and diode temp feedback
Health and Safety compatible with on deck auto-off option. The Skate software can take in NMEA strings for depth and turn off the laser for safety considerations when the ROV is running out of the water. Comes standard as line laser. Other lens options available.
The Skate Grid Laser is modulated by two methods:
-
TTL modulation up to 250 kHz
-
Analog dimming up to 10 Hz
The laser generates a red grid with a fan angle of 40° (in air) built by 4689 spots and features an integrated focusing mechanism with a high-diffraction efficiency.
Other lens options available.
The Skate Lasers were engineered primarily for 3D modeling. For that reason, it is ideal for metrology and pipeline survey allowing the user to precisely quantify any deficiencies or structural issues in conjunction with a laser scanning system.
We are always thinking about user experience and how to enhance our equipment for smoother use and deploy.
Some features include:
-
