The Gladius Underwater Drone Will Shoot in 4K as it Reaches the Briny Deep

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
First drones took to the air. Now they are taking to the sea! The Gladius is basically a remote-controlled submarine with a 4K camera that can dive down to 100 meters. A big, yellow double-barreled monster, the beast is controlled via a phone-connected remote and it is semi-tethered, which means it can roll out about 500 meters with the right gear.
The basic kit comes with the drone, a 1080p camera, 30 meter tether, and a “wifi bouy” that acts as a sort of a repeater. It’s designed to be deployed from the beach but you can dump it into the sea from anywhere. It has “four degrees of freedom” which means you can dive deep to meet a turtle or a fridge.
