In this video Blue Robotics' talks through their new BlueROV2 R4 revision with navigator flight controller, locking watertight enclosures and acrylic and aluminum tube options (with official 100m and 300m depth ratings). The BlueROV2 has been out for nearly six years now and in that time it has become one of the most popular ROVs in the world! It is a remotely operated underwater vehicle with a camera, lighting, and thrusters, which allows users to explore, inspect, and study things underwater.
