Aiming to make fishing a more precise sport, the PowerRay underwater drone will be showcased at CES 2017 to the delight of fishers of all kinds.
The PowerRay underwater drone works by being placed into the water and controlled via an accompanying smartphone app. Additionally, the drone is capable of being paired with a virtual reality headset in order to provide real-time underwater vision for research purposes or to help locate fish.
The PowerRay underwater drone can dive down as deep as 30-meters and can detect fish using sonar up to 40-meters away. Combined, these functionalities make the system capable of having a very expansive reach when it comes to locating and zeroing in on fish.
