Thread: Somebody's been experimenting

I tried to modify Side Imaging views on HB units, but it look like it is better to modify Down Imaging.
Let us imaging that the boat with ordinary DI transducer goes above tree, cylinder and cube. Tree is in the middle, a cylinder is in front and the cube is in the back side 50 feet away of cylinder:

What we will see on 597 DI screen is:

a cylinder and a cube are on the same front side and look very close to each other, that is not real.

What I suggest is to use double crystal Front and Back Down Imaging transducer (like SI transducer) and to use spitted views:

One can see that the objects are separately shown in convenient distinct views. The both views are moving the same way from right to the left.

Let us see how the same objects will look on dedicated SI unit with narrow screen in the same depth range:

The objects look very small and in inconvenient manner, that causes a wish to incline a head left or right… but it doesn’t help much .

What I offer can be reached by slight change of existing software in small and narrow screen SI units:
