Work Smarter
Synapse H-Grad offers automatic configuration, coordination, synchronization and self-diagnostics. It can’t set up and deploy itself, so we made it light and small. Work smarter, not harder. -
Ultimate Versatility
A lightweight, low-drag, neutrally-buoyant gradiometer for any application and deployment: conventional or unmanned surface, underwater (AUV, ASV, USV) or Side Scan sonar integrations. -
Fast Sampling
Microcell Rubidium sensors offer up to 20Hz sampling with ultra-low 10pT/rt-hz sensitivity. -
Ultra-Light
At 21.8 kg (48 lbs) the combined frame and two nodes can be deployed by one person. -
Simple Assembly
Assemble in as little as 30 minutes. -
Integrated position tracking
Synapse can be equipped with built-in IMU, Altimeter, and Pressure sensor options–no messy straps/attachments. -
Rough Weather Resistance
Maintain control with the self-righting frame. -
Firmware Updater Tool
Update the transceiver firmware yourself to capitalize on our newest feature releases and critical updates. -
Get BOB Survey Software
Easily plan, configure, execute, and analyze your survey – free and native for all our magnetometers.
