Application Areas

Search and rescue operations - in SAR scenarios, time is critical. A rapidly deployed ROV can search river beds, harbours, canals, flooded structures and coastal areas faster and more safely than diver teams in the initial phase of an operation - verifying whether diver deployment is necessary, and guiding rescuers to the correct location.


Marine/conservation research - research teams use Chasing ROVs for benthic habitat surveys, coral reef monitoring, fisheries stock assessment, and invasive species mapping. The modular payload system allows integration of water quality sampling (pH, dissolved oxygen, turbidity etc) alongside the video system, enabling combined biological and chemical data collection in a single dive.


Ship hull inspections - conventional hull inspections require divers and significant operational planning. An ROV can survey a vessel's hull, propeller, thruster tubes and sea chests in a fraction of the the time, producing continuous HD video evidence and reducing vessel downtime. The same workflow applies to bridge piers, lock gates, jetty structures, pontoons and offshore leg platforms.


Ports and harbour management - regular inspection of berth infrastructure, mooring points, sluice gates, ladders, chains and harbour floors is a routine requirement for port operations. ROVs reduce the cost and scheduling complexity of these surveys while producing consistent, reviewable documentation.


Aquaculture/fisheries - net cage inspection, stock health monitoring and feeding behaviour observation are all possible with a compact ROV operating inside or around aquaculture pens. The tethered design provides continuous live video without the battery constraints of free-swimming alternatives.


Underwater archaeology - non-invasive visual survey of submerged archaeological sites - shipwrecks, harbour structures, submerged landscapes - is a growing application. The ability to manoeuvre slowly in confined spaces and capture stable, high-definition imagery makes Chasing ROVs well-suited to this work.

Frequent questions

If you have other questions, send us an email at support@this-camera.com

Which Chasing ROV is right for my application?

The M2S is best for teams prioritising portability and budget, or those new to underwater ROV operations. The M2 Pro suits commercial inspection teams wanting modularity and reliability for regular deployments. The M2 ProMax is the platform for complex, multi-tool scientific or industrial missions. The Chasing X is for deep-water or high demand industrial applications where only the best will do. Contact our team and we will help you identify the right platform for your specific requirements.

How deep can Chasing ROVs operate?

Operational depth varies by model. The range extends to 350m on the higher-specification systems. Please consult individual datasheets or speak to our team for depth ratings by model.

Can I add sensors or tools to the ROV?

Yes! Chasing ROVs use a modular accessory architecture. Available add-ons include robotic arms, sonar modules, water quality samplers, laser scalers and USBL positioning tools. Our team can advise on compatible accessories for your mission profile.

Do you provide service, training and support?

As an authorised UK and Ireland distributor, THIS-camera provides application consultation, operational guidance and ongoing service and technical support. We work with you before, during and after purchase to ensure that your team is confident and productive.

What does tethered operation mean in practice?

Chasing ROVs operate on a physical tether - a neutrally buoyant cable that carries live data and control between the drone and the surface. With the battery installed in the drone body this means real-time video with no compression lag and responsive control for smooth and reliable operation.
