2022: Underwater Drone Camcorder Announcement
On July 12, 2022, Roselectronics presented a video camera for underwater drones. It can work at a depth of up to 1 km.
The photo and video recording system developed by the Research Institute of Television (part of the Roselectronics holding) consists of a chamber installation, deep-sea LED lamps, as well as an information control and processing unit. The solution ensures the recording of the environment during scientific research, geological exploration on the shelf, anti-terrorist and rescue operations at depth.
According to the developers, the device adapts to the speed of the underwater vehicle and to the transparency of the water. The complex includes two LED lamps in sealed cases, providing near and far lighting. The system implements automatic control of light flux depending on the degree of water transparency. Due to the use of a pulse lighting system, the devices have high energy efficiency.
The tugboat of the Factor diver, commissioned by the St. Petersburg State Fire Service of the Russian Emergencies Ministry, with a weight of 29 kg, is able to tow up to 2 tons of cargo and reach speeds of up to 3.5 knots. The device is used during search and rescue operations, when drawing up bottom maps, demining, conducting anti-terrorist operations, as well as for training divers.
According to the general director of the Research Institute of Television Alexei Semenov, the system can be installed on any underwater vehicles, including unmanned vehicles. By mid-July 2022, state tests of equipment as part of the Reef autonomous uninhabited underwater vehicle are being carried out. Also, the complex is installed on a towing machine for divers "Factor." It helps to increase the useful time spent under water, and the information collected allows you to quickly make decisions at the scene, said Semenov, whose words are quoted by the press service of Roselectronics[1]
