Teledyne Marine is at the forefront of developing high-performance instruments, sensors, and technologies designed to explore and monitor the subsea environment. Find out more >>
Offering both cutting-edge COTS products and fully customized solutions, Teledyne Marine has partnered with OST to better serve a global customer base across defense, oceanography, environmental science, offshore energy, and beyond.
In the short time since 2025 began, Teledyne Marine has already achieved so much across a range of applications, not least the launch of a variety of brand new sensors and products at the Ocean Business 2025 trade show. Not long before this, the company’s collaboration with DEEP saw the completion of a precise hydrographic survey of a loch using an autonomous surface vessel.
In February alone, Teledyne Marine supplied their SeaBat T20-ASV to even more hydrographic surveys, supplied optical connectors to enable BBC Studios to carry out deep-sea filming in the Arctic, and deployed their unique Slocum gliders to enhance marine mammal conservation efforts in the Roseway Basin.

Subsea Imaging
Hydrophones & Transducers
Teledyne Marine’s extensive range of hydrophones provides frequency options up to 800 kHz with diverse depth ratings, while its acoustic transducers are tailored for specialized applications. When off-the-shelf solutions don’t fit, Teledyne works closely with customers to develop bespoke designs.
Single-Beam & Multibeam Sonars
From shallow to deep water, Teledyne offers a comprehensive selection of forward-looking sonars, single- and multibeam echosounders, profiling and scanning sonars, and sub-bottom profilers—all designed for seamless integration with surface and subsea platforms.
Cameras & Lighting
The Bowtech line of underwater vision systems includes high-resolution navigation, inspection, and tooling cameras, complemented by ultra-bright LED lights, laser pointers for diver applications, and emergency xenon strobes.
Dredging & Construction
Teledyne Marine delivers turnkey solutions for dredging, construction, and offshore applications, leveraging its versatile Teledyne PDS monitoring software. These systems integrate inclination sensors, attitude sensors, multibeam and single-beam sonars, and laser scanners to provide precise real-time data for project optimization.
Precision Subsea & Surface Instrumentation
Navigation & Positioning
From acoustic positioning systems to Doppler velocity logs and inertial navigation systems, Teledyne Marine provides accurate positioning solutions for surface and subsea operations, accommodating a range of size, performance, and budget needs.
Pipe & Cable Detection Systems
The HydroPACT system delivers best-in-class subsea pipe and cable tracking as well as UXO detection, with flexible configurations for trenchers, large work-class ROVs, and smaller observation-class ROVs.
Acoustic Communication
Teledyne Benthos underwater modems and transponders enable wireless data transmission between assets and the surface, significantly reducing dependency on traditional underwater cables and connectors.
Acoustic Recovery
With lifting capacities up to 25 tons, Teledyne Benthos acoustic releases provide a safe and reliable method for deploying and retrieving subsea equipment across various depths.
Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers
Teledyne RD Instruments’ ADCP solutions support river discharge measurement, deep-sea current profiling, and wave assessment, offering adaptable platforms for real-time hydrologic data collection.
Underway Profiling Systems
The rapidCAST system enables automated sound velocity profiling, eliminating the need for research vessels to halt operations while gathering critical oceanographic data.
Uncrewed Surface & Underwater Vehicles
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs)
Teledyne Gavia’s modular AUVs are depth-rated up to 6000 meters and can be reconfigured in the field with sensor payloads including side-scan sonars, multibeam profilers, and high-resolution cameras.
Uncrewed Surface Vehicles (USVs)
The Oceanscience Z-Boat line is purpose-built for hydrographic surveys in challenging environments, accommodating a variety of instruments such as ADCPs, echosounders, and GPS receivers.
Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs)
The Teledyne SeaBotix line of observation-class ROVs is highly modular and lightweight, built to perform reliably in strong currents while carrying diverse sensor and manipulator payloads.
Autonomous Underwater Gliders
Slocum gliders are long-range, autonomous vehicles designed to collect and transmit subsea data while operating for weeks at a time, making them ideal for persistent oceanographic monitoring.
Profiling Floats
Teledyne Webb Research APEX profiling floats provide cost-effective, long-duration water column sampling, supporting missions at depths of up to 6000 meters.
Other Solutions & Technologies
Teledyne Marine’s portfolio also includes offshore seismic solutions, such as controllers and synchronizers, streamer cables, seismic electrical interconnects, and seismic sound sources. These provide the offshore research, geophysical, and energy sectors with a long-term reliability in extreme environments and a range of technologies that can often be tailored to customer specifications.
Hydrographic software is also a technology that the company develops. The Teledyne PDS software suite facilitates real-time data acquisition from multiple sensors used in hydrographic surveys and dredging operations. Running on standard Windows PCs, the software streamlines data analysis, charting, logging, and quality control.
Lastly, the company’s advanced interconnect and cabling solutions are engineered for harsh marine environments, with Teledyne Marine’s interconnect solutions enabling reliable power, data, and signal transmission. Offerings include submersible connectors, fiber optic systems, and high-power electrical penetrators.
The cabling solutions are also designed to endure extreme temperatures, mechanical stress, and corrosive fluids, with Teledyne’s customized cabling solutions integrating multiple functionalities into ruggedized designs suited for demanding subsea applications.
With an impressive portfolio of advanced marine technologies, Teledyne Marine is a trusted partner for industries seeking precision, durability, and innovation in subsea exploration and monitoring.
By continually advancing its product offerings, Teledyne remains at the cutting edge of ocean technology, ensuring seamless operations for customers worldwide.
