Multi-Vu HD Pro adds live underwater video right to your sonar screen.
Live (Underwater) Streaming for You Sonar
Aqua-Vu’s amazing Multi-Vu Pro System adds value and underwater video to sonar
Crosslake, MN – Similar to your tablet or smartphone, modern sonar units now offer an expansive array of interesting apps. Most valuable for anglers, top-end sonar-GPS screens now provide video compatibility, and the ability to play live underwater action when connected to an Aqua-Vu camera. For ice anglers who fish from luxury hardwater houses, the same simple connection fills the TV screen with crystal clear underwater video—a live fishing play-by-play that keeps everyone engaged in what’s happening below.
The ultimate in fish-finding technology for over two decades, Aqua-Vu recently introduced Multi-Vu HD Pro, a turnkey sonar- or TV-to-camera adaptor system that turns your LCD into a live underwater viewer.
“The Multi-Vu Pro system provides instant connectivity between my Aqua-Vu camera and my big screen sonar,” says professional angler and electronics wizard, “Doctor Sonar” Bruce Samson. “High definition underwater video gives me a superior view of my fishing area, in the sharpest, brightest, and most amazing sunlight viewable picture available. The ability to view sonar signals side-by-side with real-time underwater video is a remarkable advantage, confirming fish species and the true-to-life appearance and layout of structure.”
Complete with a high-definition Aqua-Vu XD™ underwater camera (with 75-feet of cable), Camera-Cable Shuttle and Control Module, the Multi-Vu Pro System (MSRP $699) features both analog (RCA) or digital HD (HDMI) video compatibility. Also included is a 12-volt power cable for connection to an auxiliary power source, such as an on-board battery.
Camera Control Module includes power on/off switch and infrared (IR) lighting dimmer switch for adjusting IR light intensity of the Aqua-Vu camera optics. For connection to HDMI or RCA enabled TV or sonar units, Aqua-Vu offers optional HDMI Video or RCA Video cords, with IP67 waterproof connections.
“The Multi-Vu Pro system is a powerful tool for tournament prefishing,” adds Mark Lassagne, who scouts with underwater optics on West Coast bass waters, such as Clear Lake and the California Delta. “If sonar marks a fish, I can quickly drop the Aqua-Vu and see if it’s a bass, as opposed to a carp or other species. I can also uncover fish hiding in heavy brush or grass; these fish aren’t always possible to discern on the meter (sonar).”
The Aqua-Vu Multi-Vu Pro System upgrades any video enabled sonar or LCD with live, HD or analog video functionality. Run underwater video side-by-side with a digital mapping window and drop waypoints on individual big fish. Play live Aqua-Vu imagery simultaneously with sonar and remove all the question marks. The new Aqua-Vu is perfect for boat-mounted sonar displays or a TV inside a wheeled ice-fishing shelter.
Fully sealed and functional in fresh- and saltwater, the patent-pending Aqua-Vu XD camera housing features versatile underwater viewing options. Connected to the camera’s Quick-Attachment™ Slide Rail, XD accessories (sold separately) offer various underwater perspectives.
