To carry out its subaquatic research, the Japanese organisation NRIFE uses underwater monitoring kits, comprised of cameras placed in NXM housings.

Okinawa experts have recently installed a mobile underwater filming system. It is a system that uses cameras protected by Videotec's specialist NXM housing.

The ambitious total IP video system which aims to protect the marine and coastal environment of La Maddalena distinguishes itself for its charming locations and the singularity of the challenges it has faced and the relevance of current issues at stake.
The video system installed on the La Maddalena island is composed of a dozen cameras platforms.
Videotec NXM IP68 stainless steel camera housings and NXPTH pan-tilt head were installed to protect and handle the cameras; these rugged products are designed to withstand the most severe environments and developed specifically for the offshore market, marine environment monitoring, industrial use and any type of environment where external agents are highly corrosive and aggressive as at sea. Furthermore, the accurate mechanical construction and reliable motors reduce the need for maintenance even in situations of intense mechanical stress.
This is an essential condition in sites which are difficult to reach like the Maddalena archipelago.
Moreover, these devices are equipped with wipers to ensure clear viewing in all weather conditions.
Given the need of a precise patrolling, the pan-tilt units were equipped with two-way telemetry, an ad hoc application that shows on the monitor not only the frames but also the geographical coordinates of reference.
