Water Video
F.A.Q

Water Video

The Water Video line of combines state of the art materials, electronics, optics, and hydrodynamics to produce the highest quality video in the smallest, lightest, and most easily deployed unit available. This feat of engineering was accomplished by some of the world's top underwater engineers and scientists.

Durability
Water Video's design has been perfected over years of extensive field experience. Water Videos have been deployed all over the world - from the warm, clear, calm waters of the Caribbean to hostile environments in the Arctic. Water Videos have been used in water too polluted for humans and in many places too confined for divers to enter.

Materials and construction
Tough materials -- acrylic domes, anodized aluminum, stainless steel, and Kevlar - used in the Water Video 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.

Cameras
Water Video allows two different cameras - one forward looking more than 170 degrees of tilt range and one optional backward looking with its own lights. Several options on the forward camera are available for higher light sensitivity and resolution. The patented design allows us to add extensive instrumentation to the unit.

Sensors
Our standard compass and depth sensor can be augmented with sonar and other sensors. Computer control and instrumentation are possible, along with many customizations to meet the needs of many professions.

Depth and weight
Water Videos are depth rated to over 500 feet. The submersible unit weighs less than 9 pounds. It is deployed by simply hanging it from its tether and dropping it in the water.

Research and development
Our ongoing research and development - and extensive supplies of spare parts and trained technicians - ensures that we can continue to keep our customers productive with Water Video technology for years in the future.

***NEW ACCESSORY**** LCD screen
The compact, lightweight LCD screen is more portable and requires less space than a TV monitor, which has traditionally been used to view underwater video captured by Water Video. The LCD quickly and easily mounts on the lid of Water Video's control box and plugs into other Water Video viewing accessories.

Measuring 6.2 inches w, 4.9 in H, 1.3 inches deep, the LCD monitor displays color video captured by the Water Video sub. No wires or cables are required to use the LCD, which also plugs into camcorders, head-mounted displays, TVs, and VCRs. The LCD can be added to both the Water Video 2000 and the Water Video Pro. The device is available in either NTSC or PAL video formats and is CE marked. It is available now.
