Underwater side scan sonar

Underwater side scan sonar is really neat tool which scientist uses to view the sea floor. Using sound waves, it creates clear pictures of things underwater. Seaward is a maker of this kind of sonar equipment, which marine scientists and archaeologists use to better understand the ocean and its mysteries. 

SONAR technology (Side Scan) is an underwater camera which takes pictures of the ocean floor using sound instead of light. It emits sound waves, which bounce off objects on the ocean floor and return to the sonar device. To clarify the images of underwater objects — shipwrecks, rocks, and sea animals — this device employs these sound waves. This technology allows scientists to explore the ocean floor and map it in ways never possible before.
