Fanbeam4

Precision Positioning and Tracking System

Fanbeam4 is a laser radar system designed for repetitive, high accuracy positioning and tracking of marine vessels, and static and semi-static anchored structures.

Features
Class 1 Eye-Safe laser system Range up to 1,000 m (Fanbeam4.1) Utilises inexpensive intrinsically safe targets Rugged design for offshore marine environment State-of-the-art technology AutoTilt mechanism Easy to install

Description
The system is primarily used to position a vessel next to a platform, jetty or other vessel. The basic system consists of a laser-scanning unit mounted on a motorised yoke that can rotate 360 at up to 50 per second. The Fanbeam4.1 laser can measure to a range of 1,000 m to within an accuracy of 10 cm using a vertical 20 fan of pulsed light produced by a multiple array of semiconductor laser diodes in combination with special optics. Pulses reected from a retro-reector mounted on a rig or a vessel are timed and multiplied by the speed of light to give distance. The electro-optical encoder is read at the time the reected pulse is received to determine the bearing. An AutoTilt mechanism incorporated into the yoke of the Fanbeam4 allows the laser-scanning head to be adjusted by 15 giving a total beam range of -25 to +25.
