Altimeters are sonar devices used primarily for measuring the distance between an underwater vehicle (such as an ROV or AUV) and the seabed or another underwater structure. By sending out a sound pulse and measuring the time it takes for the signal to bounce back, altimeters provide real-time altitude or distance data. This precise distance information is essential for maintaining a controlled depth and safe proximity to underwater surfaces, especially in navigation and inspection tasks in low-visibility conditions. Altimeters are commonly integrated into navigation systems to assist with altitude control and are crucial for maintaining safe, close-range maneuvering.
