# Livestreaming Underwater Drones This Drone's 4K Camera Transmits High-Quality Video In Real Time By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2016-09-20 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/CCROV-underwater-drone References: [newatlas](http://newatlas.com/ccrov-underwater-drone/45475/) & [indiegogo](https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ccrov-the-first-underwater-drone-with-a-4k-camera) The CCROV is a high-tech underwater drone that is fitted with its own integrated 4K camera, which allows it to capture images and video of crystal-clear quality before transmitting in to ground operators in real time. This particular underwater drone is equipped with a [GoPro](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hero-10-black-bones) Hero4 camera, and transmits multimedia captures to ground operators via a physical cable. The cables can range in length from 20 all the way up to 100 meters. In addition to its impressive photography specs, the CCROV underwater drone comes with a quadrant of LED lights and an array of thrusters that enable for accurate and easily controllable movement in all directions. Easy to control and deploy for video projects, this underwater drone will be of great use to marine scientists wanting to study underwater environments, as well as documentary filmmakers. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 14% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Crystal-clear Underwater Imaging:** Opportunity for developing advanced imaging technology for underwater exploration and research. - **Real-time Transmission:** Potential for developing wireless transmission systems for immediate access to underwater footage. - **Controlled Underwater Movement:** Opportunity for creating improved propulsion and navigation systems for precise underwater maneuverability. ### Who This Affects Most - **Marine Science:** Disruptive innovation potential in underwater research and exploration. - **Film and Documentary Production:** Opportunity for capturing high-quality underwater footage for movie production. - **Wireless Technology:** Potential for developing wireless transmission systems for various industries requiring real-time data from underwater environments. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Agile Underwater Exploration Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/youcan-robotics-oceaneye.md) - [Multitasking Underwater Drones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multitasking-underwater-drone.md) - [Underwater Productivity Drones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fifish-v6-expert.md) - [Powerfully Versatile Underwater Drones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/powerfully-versatile-underwater-drone.md) - [Compact Autonomous Underwater Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compact-autonomous-underwater-vehicle.md) - [Miniature Underwater Drone Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bentix-underwater-drone.md) - [Danger-Embracing Underwater Drones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dangerembracing-underwater-drones.md) - [Waterproof Self-Flying Drones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hoverair-aqua-drone.md) - [Autonomous Underwater Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-underwater-robot.md)
