  • Current and Wave Measurements from Autonomous Surface Platforms



    Using Acoustic Doppler Current sensors from moving surface platforms are challenging. Constant changes in tilt and heading should be compensated for in every measurement. Magnetic disturbances from metal parts and acoustic reflections against objects below the surface could introduce speed and directional errors. Read the application note to learn about other challenges and how to measure detailed current and wave information from small platforms.
