Field notes
The listed pod combines a 12-bit raw GigE camera with a Raspberry Pi 4B, a turbidity probe, Ping2 sonar, and a 30 m Cat 6-and-power tether. Four 12 V, 5 W lights sit at the corners of the front face and illuminate the scene one at a time. A reported well test reached about 2 m for 19 minutes with a printed rear blank; the page explicitly limits that result to that setup and says pressure tests on the real rear lid are still required.
