Whether you're a scuba diver, underwater photographer, commercial diver, oceanographer or just want to have fun, we've intelligently engineered Gladius with features to fit a wide range of uses:

  • Most Affordable - Compared to other underwater drones with similar features, Gladius is a steal at $599.
  • Easy To Control - Piloting is easy with its quad thrusters, four degrees of freedom and gaming-like controller.
  • Long Range - Semi-tether connection increases range to 500m and 100m deep, triple the industry average.
  • Image Optimization - Light sensors and image optimization algorithms create stunning 4K videos without distortion.
  • Portable Case - Weighing only 6.6lbs and measuring 16.9"x10.2"x3.7", transport anywhere via backpack or Gladius' hard-shell case available in the Professional perk.

 


 

Design, Camera & Piloting Overview

Gladius is an all-in-one underwater robotics package, complete with it's own hardshell travel case available in the Pro Perk.

 

 

Engineered with features for professional use, yet designed to be easy and fun for underwater photography enthusiast:

 

With Gladius you'll spend more time underwater, less time learning to use and you won't spend thousands to get a drone with comparable features.

Submersible Piloting Made Easy

Nimble submarine design and responsive gaming-controller allow you to get the most out its 4K camera.

With Gladius you'll spend more time underwater, less time learning to use and you won't spend thousands to get a drone with comparable features. 

Omni-Directional Underwater Movement

Gladius' unique quad thruster design allows responsive and accurate navigation in all directions.

 

The quad-thruster design lets the drone move nimbly with four degrees of freedom:

  • left/right
  • forward/back
  • rise/fall
  • roll

 

The powerful rear thrusters will have Gladius zooming through the water (forwards or backwards) at speeds of 2 meters or 6.6 feet per second or at 4 knots.

Video Game-like Simple Controls

Simply insert your iOS or Android smartphone into the remote control.

With similarities to a gaming system, you move Gladius through the operation of two joysticks.

One operates the forward, back, and turning of the drone (think of it like walking), while the other operates the direction in which the camera faces (think of it like moving your head).

 

Your smartphone rests in the center of the remote controller, so you can view the live stream of your underwater exploration.

Piloting Depth, Range & Time Submersed

The Gladius underwater drone is capable of diving up to 100 meters (328ft) deep with a horizontal range of 500 meters (1640ft), while staying submerged for 3 hours.

The internal cabin of Gladius is sealed and uses aluminum alloy materials with oxidation treatment to ensure the drone is waterproof and corrosion resistant, allowing it to safely dive to 100 meters or 328 feet with ease.

Our unique semi-tether connection system increases the practical range of Gladius up to 500m or just over 1,600 feet. As radio waves don't travel well in water, this tether allows the drone to communicate with the towable buoy by direct wiring.

The tether connects to a towable, floating buoy which wireless connects to your smartphone remote control via long range Wifi communication. The buoy has an integrated wireless module with a range of up to 30m (98ft) for the Standard model and an impressive 500m (1,640ft) for the Advanced model.

Finally, Gladius' Polymer Lithium batteries have a run time of 3.5 hours while only requiring 1.5 hours of recharge time. 

Stunning Underwater Photography & Videography Made Easy

Capture high quality photo and video directly to internal storage or live stream your dive in real-time.

 

 

The Gladius underwater smart drone allows you to explore the depths with crystal clear HD imagery, conduct search and rescue operations from afar, and inspect boats, pools, and equipment without a diver handy.

Ultra HD, High Resolution HD Camera

Gladius features an on-board 1080P (Standard) or 4K (Advanced) camera in order to take stunning underwater photo and video.

 

See the underwater world like never before... (Footage is compress but be sure that Gladius shoots in Ultra HD) 

The unique stabilizing mechanisms are combined with low light sensors and image quality optimization algorithm to allow users to take 16 megapixel photos and 4K video without distortion.

Adjustable Dimming LED Headlights

LED lights on either side of the camera have 135 degree illumination angle to light a clear path for the drone and illuminate your underwater subjects.

Each light is 1200 lumens and features dimming controls for varying visibility conditions.

 

 

Moreover, the lights can be continuously dimming for different conditions by push the buttons on the top-side of controller.

Live Stream and/or Store Internally

By using the Gladius iOS or Android smartphone app you get to choose which ones you want to save directly to your phone.

 

Live stream your underwater journey directly to your smartphone in 720P for easy navigation, photo, and video framing. All data and images are live transmission bidirectional.

Gladius also stores the videos and images you take on the included SD card. The Standard drone comes with a 16GB Micro SD storage card, and the Advanced package comes with a 64GB Micro SD storage card.

Intelligently Engineered Submarine By Design

Designed as a multi-use underwater robotics platform with affordability, functionality, ease of use and software in mind.

Gladius is engineered to be smart and easy, from the tethering connection, to buoy system, to buoyance, to the smartphone app and controls.

Neutral Buoyancy & Software Supported Stability

Neutral buoyancy means that the body of the drone has a density equal to that of the water in which it is immersed, so the drone doesn't float or sink.

The structure of Gladius was specially designed for neutral buoyancy in the water. Combined with our unique PID software algorithm, this ensures that the drone maintains stability while you're shooting video and photo.

This means Gladius will always stay suspended in place so you can precisely inspect an object at any depth.

Semi-Tether Communication System

The Gladius use unique semi-tether connection system, which extremely increase the practical range of vehicle up to 500 meters.

The data and image connection system contains two parts: tether and buoy.

The tether connects to a towable, floating buoy which wirelessly connects to your smartphone remote control via long range Wifi communication.

Gladius uses a neutrally buoyant tether to communicate to a towable buoy on the surface, as radio waves don't travel well in water and particularly at the depths this submarine can dive to. The buoy has an integrated wireless module with a range of up to 30m (98ft) for the Standard model and an impressive 500m (1,640ft) for the Advanced model.

All data and image from Gladius are live bidirectional transmissions, so you can watch live 720P HD video feedback (saves at up to 4k on SD card) or control Gladius using a tabled or laptop from a boat or from the shore.

In addition to extending range, we see the tether as a huge benefit...if anything happens to your drone at a deep depth, you can simply pull it up by the tether so you don’t lose your underwater drone investment.

Durable Travel Carrying Case 

Gladius was designed for portability and can easily fit into most backpacks but travels best in its hard-shell case.

The Gladius Underwater Drone Professional package comes with a hard-shell carrying case that protects your drone, tether, buoy and controller while in transit.
