VideoRay Pro line are popular models for commercial or demanding applications. All Pro models have an open architecture that accommodates a wide variety of tools and sensors. Though the base Pro model does not have all of the bells and whistles, it proves an excellent platform to build upon.
The base Pro requires a user supplied video display. An external video monitoring/recording device that has a composite video input– typically a TV/VCR combination – is recommended for recording missions.
All components fit neatly in two watertight, rolling Pelican cases that fit easily in the trunk of a car or in airline luggage compartments. The entire system is stored in the Pelican cases and weighs less than 40 kg (90 lbs).
