BII-7140 Series Acoustic Elements for Arrays, Streamers, Beacons and Positioning.

The acoustic elements feature small size, low cost and easy integration, and are ready to be assembled in discrete arrays such as linear (broadside, end-fire, Mills Cross), planar and 3-D arrays to implement different acoustic applications. Depending on the operating frequency, these elements can be treated as Points, Lines or Rectangle Aperture in array signal processing. Beam steering, array focusing, bearing measurement, side-lobe suppression, and user-defined beam pattern (broad or narrow) can be achieved by complex weighting (Digital or FFT Beamforming) technique. Differential output and shielded twisted pair cable provide great EMI noise rejection over long cable. Multiple elements can be combined in series or parallel to make up an array distributing hundreds meters in field.
If your project needs very low acceleration sensitivity, Please refer to BII-7090 about acoustic elements with acceleration cancellation.
