The Edge Detector is a high performance Pulse induction metal detector which can be attached to almost any ROV, but is specifically designed for the VideoRay Pro-3 and Pro-4. Pulse induction technology allows it to detect both ferrous and non-ferrous metal objects on or beneath the ocean floor while ignoring minerals in the seabed. The remote metal detector locates and tracks underwater pipelines, finds missing tools and dredge parts, locates weapons and unexploded ordnance, and finds lost treasure.. The system employs a single 10 inch coil firmly attached to the underwater vehicle with a corrosion-proof Delrin frame. The frame provides a sturdy mount for the coil and positions it out in front of the ROV so as not to be affected by the ROV's metal parts. The coil produces a detection envelope which extends 1 to 5 feet into the bottom. The sleek, low profile coil design minimizes drag and weight on the ROV. The entire system slides into the Pro-3/Pro-4 manipulator clamping bracket, allowing extremely rapid deployment. When the coil senses metal it sends a signal to the red LED attached to the underwater vehicle, and can be seen by simply titling the ROV's camera down. The Edge Detector is depth rated to 600ft.
