Company President and Co-Founder
Scott Bentley

Scott is co-founder and president of VideoRay, which was founded in 1999. The idea to introduce the world's smallest ROV came to Scott while skydiving over the North Pole three years ago. During his trip, he and his friend Bob Christ visited the Shirshov Institute in Moscow, which developed the Mir manned submersible that explored the Titanic. Scientists at the Institute were working on a microROV that would be small enough to enter other parts of Titanic and the WW2 Japanese I-52 submarine. Bob and Scott were fascinated and started investigating whether anyone was selling microsubs commercially. Scott and Bob found Inuktun in Canada, a company with a design for an 8-pound ROV that had been proven over a decade of use and engineering. They purchased the technology and started VideoRay with dream of introducing divers and underwater explorers to an affordable ROV that could go places no other ROV could go.
