<DIV dir="ltr">Brian, since my sub has no hatch window, I can not see when I am submerged. Also I can not see above the waterline once I am surfaced. To solve this I installed a automotive back-up camera. I used the type that has a cable, not the wireless. I put the camera in a housing and used the cable it comes with. The come with plenty of cable if you buy one for a bus. They are cheap and the picture is good enough for the purpose. They also have LED lights built in.</DIV><DIV dir="ltr">Hank</DIV><DIV><BR></DIV>

Since I'm such a long way from the bow of my boat I figure it might be a good idea to put a camera out there. I have my 10' x 28" dia cylinder which intersects my 5' diameter sphere where my batteries and electrical components for the motors reside, I think I'm going to put a 16" x 14.5" monitor at about 5' into the cylinder where the batteries start so I can still get to all the electronics, and then have a small form factor computer running for the cameras and navigation. Since the monitor and the computer would be relatively low power consumption I was going to run a dedicated inverter for those. I have plenty of ports available to run data cables thru , just not sure what to use, would that be a subcon item?</FONT></FONT></DIV><DIV style=""><FONT size="2" style=""><FONT face="Arial, sans-serif"><BR></FONT></FONT></DIV><DIV style=""><FONT size="2" style=""><FONT face="Arial, sans-serif">Brian</FONT></FONT></DIV><DIV style=""><FONT size="2" style=""><FONT face="Arial, sans-serif"><BR></FONT></FONT></DIV><DIV style=""><FONT size="2" style=""><FONT face="Arial, sans-serif"> </FONT><BR></FONT><BR><SPAN style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:10pt;">--- personal_submersibles@psubs.org wrote:</SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:10pt;">From: irox via Personal_Submersibles <personal_submersibles@psubs.org></SPAN><BR><SPAN style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:10pt;">To: Personal Submersibles General Discussion <personal_submersibles@psubs.org>, PSubs <personal_submersibles@psubs.org></SPAN><BR><SPAN style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:10pt;">Subject: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] camera considerations</SPAN><BR><SPAN style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:10pt;">Date: Wed, 8 Apr 2020 20:39:16 -0700 (GMT-07:00)</SPAN><BR><BR><DIV><DIV style="font-family:arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);"><DIV><BR></DIV>Hi Brian,<DIV><BR></DIV><DIV>what type of 'technology' are you thinking of putting in your sub?</DIV><DIV><BR></DIV><DIV>You could do a composite video type camera with a rather simple display in the sub, or you do something</DIV><DIV>which was using Ethernet, and have a computer inside (laptop or built in computer) to connect to the camera and</DIV><DIV>display/record the camera image.
