VideoRay was founded in 1999 on the premise of mak- ing ROVs (Remotely Operated Vehicles) more accessible to more people who want to explore and capture under- water worlds on video. Now, with more than 1,000 ROVs in service around the world, VideoRay has clearly become a leader in Micro-ROV technology. Starting at just $5,995 and weighing just 8 pounds, VideoRay is as a versatile, portable, affordable, and reliable solution for underwater operations including surveys, offshore inspections, search & recovery, homeland & port security, science & research, fish farming, and other unique applications in underwater environments. Plug and play technology allows customers to quickly attach sensors and accessories in the field.
VideoRay is currently available on the General Services
Administration (GSA) schedule.
Technology Profile: The VideoRay line of Remotely
Operated Inspection Systems combines state of the art materials, electronics, optics, and hydrodynamics to pro- duce the highest quality video in the smallest, lightest, and most easily deployed unit available. This feat of engineer- ing was accomplished by some of the world's top under- water engineers and scientists. VideoRay's design has been perfected over years of extensive field experience.
VideoRays have been deployed all over the world —from the warm, clear, calm waters of the Caribbean to hostile environments in the Arctic. VideoRays have been used in water too polluted for humans and in many places too confined or dangerous for divers to enter. Tough materials — acrylic domes, anodized aluminum, stainless steel, and
Kevlar — used in the VideoRay ensure it will withstand repeated and extended use. The careful assembly, quality controls, and pressure testing in our assembly plants ensure that each unit will continue to provide service for years. Our ongoing R&D, extensive spare parts supplies, and trained technicians ensure that our customers stay productive with VideoRay technology for years to come.
