Atlantas Marine - VideoRay Pro 3 XE GTO

VideoRay Pro 3 XE GTO

The Pro 3 XE GTO sports all the features of the top of the line Pro 3 XE adding our GTO thrusters which propel the VideoRay to speeds up to 4.1 knots. It flies through the water!

The Pro 3 XE GTO is also PC computer control enabled, allowing operators to control the ROV using included wired or wireless game controllers with a user-supplied laptop computer. THis ROV can even be controlled by software applications or remotely via a network.

The Pro 3 XE GTO can easily accommodate recording devices, modular instrumentation and tools such as: scanning imaging sonar for low visibility environments; manipulator for object retrieval or intervention; positioning system for exhaustive area searches; water quality sensor, metal thickness gauge, and more. Pro 3 XE GTO units can accommodate additional neutrally buoyant, negatively buoyant, or positively buoyant tether extensions to reach up to 305 m (1,000 ft) in overall distance but limited to 152 m (500 ft) in water depth. Included is an inverter for operation using a 12 volt power source such as a car battery.
