VideoRay - Manipulator Arm
The VideoRay Manipulator Arm is one of the most useful tools in the VideoRay toolbox. Its uses are unlimited - anything from untangling tether snags to collecting samples to recovering objects up to 45 kg (100 lb). As soon as you use it, you`ll wonder how you ever got by without it.
The manipulator arm easily attaches to the VideoRay Pro 4 skid`s existing holes and lifts objects underwater by using the tether of the ROV. From the hand controller or control panel, you can open and close the jaws to a two-inch distance to retrieve items in confined or hazardous locations. The VideoRay ROV`s camera focuses in on the manipulator arm to provide a close view of the operation. When not needed, the manipulator arm can be easily removed in seconds.
The Pro 4 manipulator arms are delivered with a manipulator clamp assembly that will attach to existing Pro 4 skids. It can be used in conjunction with most other VideoRay attachments such as Imaging and Scanning Sonar and positioning systems and is only available for VideoRay Pro 4 ROV systems.
