The world's smallest, smartest and most affordable underwater drone.

DORY Invites You to Explore The Underwater World

Expert underwater drone operators recommend you use DORY in calm waters. Try to stay away from swift currents and waters with heavy surges. The DORY’S Wi-Fi Buoy connects wirelessly to your mobile device or tablet for up to 50 ft away. The buoy connects to the drone through the 50 ft tether that is included allowing you plenty of freedom to explore.

Imagine Holding the Ocean in the Palm of Your Hand

Smaller than a standard sheet of paper, DORY can fit into a backpack and be easily transported wherever you want to use it. DORY is 56% lighter and 65% smaller than it’s big brother, GLADIUS MINI.

Features

  • Depth Lock: DORY’s Depth Lock allows you to maintain underwater stability at your desired depth.
  • Explore More: DORY comes with an internal 4800 mAh battery that allows up to one hour of exploration with a full charge. Unlike other underwater drones, with DORY, only the drone needs a charge.
  • Look Up or Down: With Dory’s slick angle positioning you can angle DORY anywhere between 45° up or down to view the world underwater.

  • Precise Positioning: The GPS Wi-Fi Buoy tracks the location of Dory so you always know where its at
  • Capture the New Frontier: DORY's 1080p f/1.6 camera opens up a whole new world of exploration. Now you can see what most cannot.
  • Light It Up: With two 250-lumen headlights, CHASING DORY comes equipped to illuminate the waters without disturbing oceanic inhabitants.
  • Built-in True Color Algorithm: With DORY'S built-in true color restoration algorithm, photos and videos show true dynamic color in all conditions.
  • Smartphone = Smart Controller: With the CHASING DORY app all you need is a smartphone to control your underwater experience. From your smartphone, you can control everything from diving, tilting, depth lock and of course, camera settings and capture.
  • Customize Visual Effects: Customize visual effects with 19 image filters and simple video editing.
  • Hydrodynamic Design: DORY's hydrodynamic design packs in the most important features in a sleek, compact body. Set up takes just a few minutes.

Better with Friends

  • Share the Fun: Quickly and easily share underwater photos and videos on Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, or your favorite social sharing platform.
  • Share is Caring: With DORY's dual play mode, two users can operate one DORY. You can have one person control the underwater drone's movements while the other operates the camera.
