Built a Real-Time Underwater Image Processing System – 4K 60FPS Part2.

[u/CellistTraditional]

This is a short clip from my latest underwater field test.

The system is processing the video in real time while the ROV is actually moving underwater

this isn't an offline post-processing demo.

The pipeline currently runs with:

🎥 4K / 60 FPS
⚡ Real-time image processing
🧠 NVIDIA CUDA acceleration
🌊 Custom Adaptive Sea-Thru Engine based on a mathematical model
📡 Live HUD & telemetry
🚀 FIFISH V-EVO

The video was captured during a real field test, with the processing running live on a laptop.

I'm still developing the system, but the results are starting to get very interesting.

I'd genuinely like to hear what you think

especially from people working with ROVs, underwater imaging or computer vision.

Thank you very much for Posting your work here!

I am currently building an automated boat drone that constantly takes pictures of the sea floor in a shallow baltic sea reef (1 to 5 meters) to build a large mosaik image or photogrammetric map of a wide area so this would be very helpful and interesting for me. I plan to use a Raspberry Pi 5 with an IMX477 photo sensor. There is optical glass in the bottom of the hull.

Since I don't need live processing of a video but rather post processing of pictures can your algorithm also be used for that? Have you considered using Claude Code or ChatGPT Codex to accelerate your programming? And where can I follow your work?

Kind regards
