Rugged 24/7 submersible AI‑ready camera for rivers, lakes and dams
With edge AI and tailored models, the submersible camera can potentially support tasks such as:
Monitoring turbidity, debris load and flow conditions around intakes, screens and culverts
Detecting biofouling, algae growth and sediment build up on underwater structures
Observing fish presence and behaviour near fish passes, screens or ladders
Tracking visual change and potential damage on dam faces, piles and other submerged assets
Optional accessories, such as a mechanical wiper, help keep the lens clear in sites with high biofouling or sediment, extending maintenance intervals and improving data quality.
For remote or hard to access freshwater sites, SnapCore offers a dual camera observation platform that combines surface and submersible imaging, solar battery power and managed connectivity in a single unit. Mounted on a raft or bank side frame, it provides simultaneous above water and underwater views as continuous live video or configurable time lapse.
The platform is designed for exposed environments and off‑grid operation, delivering video, alerts and control back to the office without the need for frequent site visits. This builds a continuous visual record for compliance, engineering and environmental reporting.
From the surface camera, operators can potentially:
Track water levels against gauge boards or fixed markers over time
Monitor debris, logs and ice that may threaten intakes, screens or spillways
Observe bank conditions for signs of erosion, scour or slope instability
Detect unauthorised recreation, vessel activity or vehicle access near sensitive structures
By integrating both surface and submerged views, the system gives a more complete picture of what is happening at each freshwater site, supporting faster decisions and better asset and environmental management.
SnapCore provides the full stack needed to run remote camera and AI projects for rivers, lakes and dams, not just the hardware.
Live viewing and time lapse: Immerse Cam supports live streams and scheduled image capture so teams can watch sites in real time or review how conditions change over hours, days and seasons from their browser.
Cloud dashboards and storage: Secure cloud services collect video, images and sensor data into SnapCore dashboards and APIs, so operators, engineers and compliance teams are all working from the same live picture.
Managed connectivity: We design and manage the mix of Ethernet, cellular, satellite and local networking needed to keep remote sites online, with health monitoring and remote diagnostics to minimise site visits.
Software layer: A browser‑based interface brings multiple sites and feeds together, with timelines, alerts and integrations into existing systems to support day to day operations and reporting.
Applied AI development: Our team designs, trains and maintains computer vision models for each deployment, so customers get practical detection and monitoring tools without needing in house AI specialists.
Together, these services mean customers can go from a single camera at a remote freshwater site to a fully managed monitoring network, with SnapCore handling capture, connectivity, cloud, software and AI.
AI. ANYWHERE.
