An underwater camera is designed to take pictures beneath the water's surface. Essential for being waterproof, these cameras are used in various settings from recreational to industrial applications.
Commonly used in hobbies such as fishing and scuba diving, underwater cameras capture images of aquatic life and environments. They are also used in marine research and industrial applications, including vessel management in fisheries, underwater construction in the construction industry, and facility maintenance in water management sectors.
Underwater cameras adhere to the "IPX" waterproof standard, which ranges from IPX0 to IPX8. Manufacturers often test their products for depth and duration of underwater usage, providing guidelines for safe operation. Some models may require additional components to enhance waterproofing for specific environments.
The global underwater camera market, valued at US$5.65 billion in 2020, is projected to reach US$18.81 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 13.90% from 2021 to 2030.
When choosing an underwater camera, consider water pressure resistance, lighting requirements in deeper waters, battery life limitations, and the need for wired connections for real-time image transmission due to limited radio wave functionality underwater.
Underwater cameras in industrial settings are used in diverse environments, from seas to chemical tanks. They can replace risky diver operations, extend inspection capabilities, and offer deeper exploration. Special processing techniques and materials have expanded their use beyond traditional underwater environments. For industrial applications, consultation with specialized manufacturers is advised.
