Alhamdulillah, we finally manage to made waterproof camera for our ROV. The camera actually is an ordinary cctc camera but we shell it with prospect cover. We glue all side of the prospect with silicon glue and it stick perfectly. In the casing, we full it with plasticine to make sure it ca be submerge in the water and not give the ROV buoyant up. We also put it to prevent the water to make a direct contact with the camera it leak. There are several more proper technique to shell it, but it we want to save the camera as we want to return it to our lecturer after our project is done. Here we use prospect because we want to monitor if there is any water leaking inside the casing. The result is excellent after we put it in 3 meter depth. It does't mean that the camera only can stand to 3 meter depth, because we only can test it in swimming pool right now. And testing in deeper place will take us to higher risk. Until we find a a proper place, we stick to IIUM's pool.
