20150085602 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FINDING FISH USING A SONAR DEVICE AND A REMOTE COMPUTING SYSTEM - The present invention generally relates to a sonar fish finding system. Specifically, this invention relates to a sonar device which attaches to a fishing line and floats on the water like a fishing bubble, float, or bobber. The sonar device pairs with a wireless computing device over a Bluetooth Smart (also known as Bluetooth Low Energy) connection to provide information to a fisherman about what is under the surface of the water. In some embodiments, processing may be done on subsets of sonar data samples in order to allow for processing a complete result without requiring storage of the entire set of data samples at once. In certain embodiments of the present invention, the sonar device sends data to a remote computing system either directly or indirectly through a wireless computing device. The remote computing system also sends the wireless computing device information about both real-time fishing hotspots, and fishing hotspots predicted based on historical data and current conditions. | 03-26-2015 |
