CT3035 Hubro Virtual Pan and Tilt Camera
Multi-function IP subsea camera with virtual pan, tilt and zoom
The Hubro CT3035 is a compact high-definition IP subsea camera designed to provide multiple imaging functions within a single system. Combining a 170° ultra wide-angle fisheye lens, software-controlled virtual pan, tilt and zoom, integrated dimmable LED lighting, RTSP Ethernet video streaming, and colour or monochrome imaging modes, Hubro reduces the need for multiple dedicated cameras while providing flexible viewing for a wide range of subsea inspection and observation tasks.
Designed for integration onto ROVs and other subsea platforms, the compact Grade 5 titanium housing measures just 100 mm in length (excluding connector) and incorporates both the camera and LED lighting within a single unit, reducing system complexity, minimising external cabling, and simplifying installation.
With multicast RTSP streaming, configurable camera controls including brightness, contrast, exposure, white balance and WDR, together with software-controlled virtual pan, tilt and zoom, Hubro provides operators with maximum situational awareness while allowing areas of interest to be viewed without mechanical pan and tilt systems.
Software-Controlled Camera Operation
Live Viewer transforms the Hubro from a fixed wide-angle camera into a flexible inspection system. Operators can navigate around the full 170° field of view, zoom into areas of
interest, adjust image settings and control the integrated LED lighting, all from a single intuitive interface. Multiple RTSP streams are available to suit different operational requirements, including a dedicated stream supporting virtual pan, tilt and zoom for detailed inspection tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Hubro?
The Hubro CT3035 is a compact high-definition IP subsea camera that combines a wide-angle camera, virtual pan, tilt and zoom, integrated LED lighting and IP video streaming into a single unit. Designed for ROVs and other subsea platforms, it provides flexible inspection and observation without the need for mechanical pan and tilt systems.
How does Hubro's virtual pan and tilt work?
Rather than physically moving the camera, Hubro uses software-controlled virtual pan, tilt and digital zoom to navigate within its 170° field of view. This allows operators to inspect areas of interest while reducing the complexity and maintenance associated with mechanical pan and tilt units.
Does Hubro require a mechanical pan and tilt unit?
No. Hubro uses software-controlled virtual pan, tilt and zoom to navigate the camera image without mechanical pan and tilt hardware.
Can Hubro be integrated into existing ROV systems?
Yes. Hubro communicates over IP/Ethernet using RTSP streaming for straightforward integration.
What applications is Hubro suitable for?
Hubro is designed for a wide range of subsea applications, including ROV inspection, marine science, offshore energy, infrastructure inspection, defence, commercial diving support and general underwater observation.
What depth is Hubro rated to?
The Hubro CT3035 is rated for operation at depths of up to 6,000 metres, making it suitable for a wide range of offshore and subsea applications.
Does Hubro include integrated lighting?
Yes. The camera incorporates a dimmable LED ring within the housing.
How do I control the Hubro camera?
Hubro is controlled using the C-Tecnics Live Viewer software, supplied with the camera. The software is provided on a USB drive and can be quickly installed onto a compatible Windows PC. Once connected to the camera over an IP network, operators can remotely view the live video stream, control virtual pan, tilt and zoom, adjust image settings, and operate the integrated LED lighting from a single intuitive interface.
Does Hubro include integrated lighting?
Yes. The camera incorporates a dimmable LED ring within the housing.
Is a 4K version of Hubro available?
A 4K version of Hubro is currently in research and development. The current CT3035 model delivers Full HD (1920 × 1080) video, while development continues on a future 4K model that will provide even greater image detail for demanding subsea inspection tasks.
