The Easytrak range of Ultra Short Baseline (USBL) systems ensures reliable and precise tracking of multiple simultaneous naval assets, including divers, ROVs, AUVs and towfish. The ultra-reliable systems are also ideal for UXO and mine survey positioning, vessel inspection, and tactical seabed mapping.
Featuring built-in pitch, roll and heading sensors to compensate for vessel movement, the Easytrak line offers a variety of options to suit differing mission requirements. Products include:
- Vesta: Compact entry-level system with 995m range
- Nexus 2 Lite: Cost-effective tracking of up to 10 simultaneous targets
- Nexus 2: Provides long-range tracking of up to 16 simultaneous targets
- Pyxis: Combined USBL & INS for survey-grade performance & very shallow-water tracking
- MIPS 2: Advanced military-grade transceivers with hemispherical or directional acoustic footprints
Acoustic Positioning Beacons
Our rugged acoustic positioning beacons are designed to fulfil a wide range of tracking and positioning applications, offering industry-leading signal stability and easy selection transmit and receive frequencies.

Submersible GNSS & Satellite Positioning
The MiniPod line of submersible GNSS receivers provides precise surface positioning and remote monitoring for naval UUVs and ROVs, as well as UXO crawler robots, towed sensors, seismic sources, and other equipment. The rugged receivers are designed for ultra-reliable operation in the harsh marine conditions of the transition zone.
The product range includes:
- 101G: L1 & L2 GNSS, 50m depth rating
- 201G: L1/L2/L5 RTK GNSS, 50m depth rating
- 103G: L1 & L2 GNSS, 1000m depth rating
- 106G: L1 & L2 GNSS, 6000m depth rating
Sub-Bottom Profiling Solutions
applied acoustics’ comprehensive range of sub-bottom profiling solutions is ideal for detection of buried sea mines, UXO (unexploded ordnance), and other hazardous threats that may otherwise be invisible to regular detection methods. These products are also highly suited to tactical seabed terrain mapping applications such as planning of covert operations.
