How Does Underwater Video Camera Appy in Deep-sea Resource Survey?

The acquisition of underwater video image information is to the ocean, and it is one of the main means to understand the status of the ocean floor. Underwater video cameras are important tools for conducting deep-sea manganese nodules surveys, bottom surveys, and deep-sea biological surveys. There are very few underwater video image survey equipment, and there are very few underwater map data in the sea area.

Underwater cameras, as an important technical means for humans to enter the ocean, which have long served in marine biological resource surveys, surveys of fishery and algae distribution, fish habits and other marine biological ecological conditions. China has a long coastline, many islands along the coast, and abundant marine life resources. With the development of the coastal economy, the habitats of marine life, wetlands, underwater grasslands, and coral reefs have been lost. The drilling and mining of near-shore oil has polluted the coast, not only killing marine life, but also destroying the fragile coastal marine life system.

In order to restore precious marine living resources, establish sustainable fisheries, protect important fish habitats, protect and restore coral reefs, and strengthen the detection and recording of marine biodiversity is very important. In recent years, in order to protect marine living resources, a number of marine nature reserves have been established along the coast, and great achievements have been made. However, the marine nature reserves still lack the necessary underwater mapping and monitoring equipment, as well as underwater image data. In this way, we seem to be weak in scientific assessment of the past and present conditions of the protected area resources. Image is one of the important media, it is more attractive and persuasive than text. Therefore, it is necessary to record video images of marine living resources.

Underwater cameras can be used in many areas and places of marine development, and it plays an important role. In fact, popular underwater cameras are used for underwater entertainment and sightseeing, marine rescue and so on. And military defense also have a wide range of uses.

The 21st century is the ocean century. Human beings will increase the development and utilization of the ocean. Underwater cameras, as one of the important tools for the development and utilization of the ocean, it will attract more and more attention and plays a greater role. At the same time, underwater cameras will also continue to develop and improve, driven by technological advances and market demand, to new levels.
