VideoRay UROVs
The VideoRay is a micro underwater submersible remotely operated vehicle (ROV). The 8-pound ROV is operated from a suitcase sized control panel and provides crisp video footage to the user. VideoRay has several different units that are depth rated from 250 feet (76 m) up to 1,000 feet (300 m) and are utilized in a variety of underwater applications including; aquaculture & fishery operations, forensics & crime scene investigation, search & rescue missions, homeland & port security operations, recreational yachting, sportfishing & underwater marine life observation, shipwreck & treasure exploration, science, research and marine habitat mapping, inland dam inspection, offshore oil & gas rig observation, and numerous other underwater observation applications. With available attachments like scanning and imaging sonars, port security and ship inspections are more efficient than ever before. Deep sea wrecks are easily located, filmed, and explored with positioning systems and manipulators. The United States Army Corps of Engineers, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, New York Police Department (NYPD), Fugro, Port of Long Beach Harbor Patrol, and fourteen branches of the Maritime Safety and Security Team (MSST) of the United States Coast Guard are amongst the countless users of VideoRay ROV’s.
