BIKI, the World’s First Bionic Unmanned Underwater Drone/Camera, Now Available on Indiegogo InDemand After Succesful Kickstarter Campaign
Wilmington, DE (PRWEB) July 18, 2017 -- Robosea’s BIKI, a new unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) designed with advanced bionics technology, has concluded its successful crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter and has shifted sales to Indiegogo InDemand.
“We’re excited by our success during our first Kickstarter campaign and really thank all those backers who want to be the first to explore with the world’s first bionic underwater drone,” said Dr. Minglei Xiong, CEO of Robosea, the company that developed the BIKI.
Crowdfunders have invested more than $200,000 for BIKI, the world’s first underwater robot with dual reconfigurable tail fin that is easily be controlled with any smart device.
BIKI supports 4k video as well as 16-megapixel photography at 30 fps, offering the best view from underwater – even when operating at high-speed or in darkness. In the event of a lost connection, a built-in GPS module makes BIKI automatically return to base or send real-time locations to mobile devices.
With an infrared positioning sensor, BIKI can avoid obstacles automatically and adapt to different complex environments intelligently, can run up to 120 minutes on a single charge – and can operate at depths of nearly 200 feet.
