Spyfish J1550

Spyfish STV (Submarine Telepresence Vehicle) is equipped with two cameras, floodlights and a rechargeable lithium-ion power pack that enable it to dive to depths of 150 meters and transmit high quality video images back to the surface, in real-time.

Three separate thrusters and its hydrodynamic form make the Spyfish agile and easy to manoeuvre using the one-handed wireless handset controller. The handset also operates the on-board cameras and lights and in case of accident – it’s waterproof and will float on the surface.

The robust and portable (500mm long x 630 mm wide) submersible is connected to the display screen on the surface by a slender, 150m cable that can be remotely detached in case of a ‘snag’, after which the Spyfish STV returns to the surface automatically.

Optima supplied design and engineering services to assist in the development of the Spyfish from concept to final  prototypes, including elements of  mechanical and component design and surfacing.
