A data processing apparatus is provided, which includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to acquire a data set from target detected by a detection apparatus, perform rendering of the data set, and generate a plurality of views arranged on a screen. Each view of the plurality of views includes a plurality of pixels. Each pixel included in the plurality of views is associated with a plurality of pieces of information including a first information displayed on the screen and a second information that indicates a view among the plurality of views to which the pixel belongs.

A sonar system for a watercraft is provided. The sonar system includes a sonar assembly configured to attach to the watercraft. The sonar assembly includes one or more sonar transducers elements configured to transmit one or more sonar beams into an underwater environment relative to a facing direction dictating a coverage volume of the one or more sonar beams. The sonar assembly includes a display, one or more processors and a memory including computer program code. The computer program code causes the one or more sonar transducer elements to emit one or more sonar beams defining the coverage volume, receive sonar return data, determine a position of the lure, adjust the facing direction of the sonar assembly to position the lure within the coverage volume, and cause presentation of a sonar image corresponding to the coverage volume of the underwater environment and including a representation of the lure.

An underwater information visualization device, which is installed on a moving body such as a ship traveling near a water surface and visualizes and displays information about fish in the water and the seabed using an ultrasonic wave, includes circuitry that generates a pseudo noise sequence signal and a modulation circuit that modulates a carrier signal to form a transmission signal, emits a transmission signal as an ultrasonic wave into the water, receives an echo of an ultrasonic wave, determines an echo corresponding to a transmission signal by subjecting the echo to correlation processing with a pseudo noise sequence signal, displays an output signal. The display simultaneously displays multiple reception signals on a screen, and a period of transmission signals is (2D/Vu) or less when an underwater sonic wave speed is Vu and a distance to the seabed is D.

The purpose is to provide a navigation information device and a navigation information processing method capable of excellently grasping a surrounding situation of own ship and improving a visibility of a detection result by a sonar. The navigation information device is provided with a surrounding information generating module for generating surrounding information around the ship itself, a sonar information generating module for generating sonar information indicating the detection result by the sonar, and a display control module for performing control for enlarging one display area of a surrounding screen on which the surrounding information is displayed and a sonar screen on which the sonar information is displayed and reducing the other display area, as compared with corresponding display area before satisfying the predetermined condition, when the predetermined condition is satisfied.

Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide accurate and reliable compact sonar systems for mobile structures. A sonar system includes multiple sensor channels, each comprising a sonar transmitter and a sonar receiver, and a logic device configured to provide control signals and receive sensor signals from the sensor channels. The logic device is configured to provide transmission signals to sonar transducer assemblies, where signal patterns of the transmission signals are differentiated based at least in part on frequency content. Acoustic returns are processed using the signal patterns to reduce inter-channel pickup between the sensor channels. Resulting sonar data and/or imagery may be displayed to a user and/or used to adjust a steering actuator, a propulsion system thrust, and/or other operational systems of the mobile structure.

Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide three dimensional target selection for use when operating mobile structures. A three dimensional target selection system includes a logic device configured to communicate with a user interface and receive volume data from a volume data source. The logic device is configured to render a first perspective of a three dimensional representation of the volume data on a display of the user interface, determine a first viewpoint vector within the 3D representation based, at least in part, on a first user input received by the user interface; and identify an object or position within the volume data based, at least in part, on the first viewpoint vector and the first user input.

The purpose is to provide a navigation information device and a navigation information processing method capable of excellently grasping a surrounding situation of own ship and improving a visibility of a detection result by a sonar. The navigation information device is provided with a surrounding information generating module for generating surrounding information around the ship itself, a sonar information generating module for generating sonar information indicating the detection result by the sonar, and a display control module for performing control for enlarging one display area of a surrounding screen on which the surrounding information is displayed and a sonar screen on which the sonar information is displayed and reducing the other display area, as compared with corresponding display area before satisfying the predetermined condition, when the predetermined condition is satisfied.

A marine electronic device is provided including a user interface, a processor, and a memory having computer program code stored thereon. The memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the processor, cause the marine electronic device to receive a first user input defining a minimum water depth value for a route on a body of water, receive a second user input defining a maximum water depth value for the route, cause a chart to be displayed on the user interface, receive a third user input directed to the chart defining an ending point, and generate a continuous route from a starting location to an ending location corresponding to the ending point based on the maximum water depth value and the minimum water depth value.
