An ROV comprising a topside, a fish and an umbilical cable for connecting
the topside and the fish together. The fish is adapted to be powered by
an onboard battery inductively coupled to the fish. The cable is of a
fine diameter to reduce drag through the water. RF transmissions carry
control and return signals to and from the fish and topside. The fish has
two cameras. The front facing camera is located behind a dual layer
flooded dome. A pan and tilt mechanism is fitted to one of the cameras
and uses a pivotable gimbal frame driven by a lead nut moving along an
arcuate bolt.
