The Smart Tether Non-Acoustic Tether Based positioning system is a revolutionary design for small ROV and diver positioning. With the system built into the tether, there is no need for additional external transponders or complicated set-up, measurement, and training. The sensors are also embedded in the tether, eliminating the need for extra wires and batteries. It really is a "drop and go" system.

Smart Tether's sensor nodes use acceleration, magnetic, and rate-gyro sensors to measure the orientation and track the position of your vehicle and tether. This data is then transmitted to the control box and displayed on your computer screen in real time.

Typical VideoRay ROV / Smart Tether applications are:

• ROV Navigation
• Diver Navigation and Tracking
• Hull & Structure Inspection
• Multiple Target Observation
• Search and Rescue / Recovery
