The Open Ocean Camera

Our goal is to leverage the power of technology and imaging to make the marine conservation process affordable, efficient and scalable.

​

Current marine monitoring with the GoPro is expensive and impractical. We're building a camera suited to the needs of marine scientists. 

​

• The camera comes with 1Tb SSD memory and 3 weeks of battery life. This eliminates the need to rent a boat and dive every three days saving you hundreds of dollars over a year!

• The camera shooting timetable can be set for a few weeks in advance. Over 25 shooting modes supported. Optimize your photographs to your need and save resources at night.

• For each time-slot the ISO, Shutter-Speed, Focal Length, Interval can be customized. Video Mode is also supported.

• The camera has an on-board raspberry pi Linux computer allowing you to run biomass estimation and other algorithms in real-time!

• We are building a GUI deep learning interface so that you can train and test the machine learning kernel to auto-classify animals without typing a single line of code.

• The camera can auto-classify images and saving only the frames where an animal is detected, saving you hours of manual classification work.
