Explore, observe, photograph and film the underwater world from the comfort of topside or dry land with the GLADIUS Remotely Operated Underwater Vehicle from Chasing Innovation. The GLADIUS captures 4K video and 12MP photos, saving them to storage or streaming them live in real time. Mount your phone or tablet in the gaming-style joystick console to control the ROV’s movements, turning in any direction with a maximum forward speed of 4 knots (6.6′ per second) and a maximum ascending/descending speed of 3 knots (5′ per second). Freshwater and saltwater weight modules assure the right buoyancy for the environment you’re operating in. The tether spool is also a floating Wi-Fi transmitter, with a range of 328′. This compact, 17.0 x 10.7 x 4.5″ vehicle has applications in recreation, photography, tourism promotion, marine inspection, and much more.Along with recording video and photos, the GLADIUS can stream live video at a bit rate of 60 Mb/s.
