Nova Ray Winged Technology and VideoRay Micro-ROV combine for more dynamic performance in strong currents and under tow
Working in strong currents with a VideoRay micro-ROV just got easier. With the addition of the removable MicroWing, users instantly increase surveying performance in challenging underwater environments.
Through a strategic alliance, the best in submersible
technologies was combined to provide customers with even greater confidence of superior results. Nova Ray, Inc. (NRI), manufacturer of the inspection class Nova Ray ROV, developed the removable MicroWing for VideoRay products. The MicroWing is a mini version of NRI’s patented arcuate wing technology designed for true axis flight in strong currents. Drawing from this expertise, NRI developed the MicroWing for the VideoRay, further defining its design as an ROV industry innovation.
Removable, Lightweight MicroWing for Underwater Challenges
The lightweight, MicroWing easily attaches to the top of the VideoRay with just a few tools. Within minutes, the MicroWing VideoRay is ready to deploy in evermore challenging underwater environments. If you own a VideoRay, add the MicroWing for a significant competitive advantage. If you are considering purchasing a VideoRay, include the MicroWing in your order for enhanced performance.
