METHOD OF PHOTO/VIDEO FILMING OF BOTTOM OBJECTS AT MAXIMUM DEPTHS WITH MINIMUM DISTORTION AND DEVICE FOR ITS IMPLEMENTATION Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC G01S15/88 G01V11/00 B63C11/48 

FIELD: hydrophysical investigations.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to hydrophysical research and can be used for research carried out in deep ocean areas. To make photo/video filming of bottom objects at maximum depths with minimum distortion, underwater photo and video filming is used. Underwater lamps are used to illuminate the objects being filmed, wherein underwater lamps are placed on the side surface of the deep-water bottom station. Deep-sea bottom station is automatically tilted and, accordingly, the direction of illumination by underwater lamps is changed for better illumination of the object being filmed and performing photo/video filming of bottom objects at maximum depths with minimum distortion. Device for photographing/video filming of bottom objects at maximum depths with minimum distortion includes a deep-water bottom station having a pressure-resistant housing with optically transparent inserts, which contains underwater lamps. Deep-water bottom station is equipped with a buoyancy control system arranged in a pressure-resistant housing of the deep-water bottom station, enclosed in a light hull – a permeable part of the device.

EFFECT: improving reliability and efficiency of photo/video filming due to automatic change of direction of light flux of underwater lamps.
