Live underwater viewing and real time stroke analysis for swim coaches, squads and poolside technique training
Seeing stroke mechanics as they happen is the fastest way to improve technique. The Seavu Seeker Pole Kit gives coaches a reliable underwater camera for swim coaching that delivers live viewing and instant recording, right from the pool deck.
Designed for poolside coaching, the Seeker Pole Kit combines a lightweight carbon fibre telescopic pole with an integrated Seeker mount, Pole Cable and pole mounted transmitter. Available in 1.5m or 3m options, it is easy to set up, simple to pack away and ideal for coaches who travel between pools.
How the Seeker Pole Kit works in the pool
Seavu connects your action camera, such as a GoPro or DJI, in a waterproof housing to your phone or tablet using a sealed Pole Cable and transmitter system. This allows you to view live underwater footage above the surface while the camera is positioned below the water.
Wireless underwater cameras lose signal as soon as they submerge because water blocks WiFi and Bluetooth. Seavu solves this by carrying the camera signal through a sealed cable connection to the transmitter above water, giving coaches a stable live view during training.
The telescopic carbon fibre pole lets you position the camera near the wall, beside the swimmer, mid lane or wherever you need the clearest view. This makes it easy to observe body position, hand entry, pull path, kick movement, turns and streamline in real time.
Why real time underwater feedback matters
Swimmers cannot see underwater mechanics while they are moving. Traditional coaching often relies on surface observation or delayed video review, which can slow down learning. With Seavu, coaches and athletes can see underwater technique in real time and adjust on the next lap.
You can also record clips instantly between sets to reinforce improvements, compare week to week and build muscle memory faster. Coaching bodies like the American Swimming Coaches Association (ASCA) highlight the value of visual feedback for accelerating skill development.
Benefits for coaches
- Immediate corrections: Real time viewing and instant replay help swimmers understand technique changes while the session is still in progress.
- Hands on control: The telescopic pole makes angle, depth and position changes fast from poolside.
- Reliable hardware: The sealed cable connection helps prevent underwater signal dropouts.
- Portable workflow: Set up quickly, move between lanes and pack everything away with ease.
- Instant recording and playback: Capture footage during training and review clips with swimmers between sets.

Why the Seeker Pole Kit is ideal for swim coaching
The Seeker Pole Kit is designed for coaches who need a simple, portable and reliable underwater viewing setup. The 1.5m option is compact and easy to travel with, while the 3m option gives extra reach for poolside positioning and wider underwater angles.
Both options are lightweight, easy to handle and quick to deploy. This makes the kit practical for regular squad sessions, private coaching, school programs and learn to swim environments.
The pole gives coaches direct control of the camera position, helping capture smoother, clearer footage without needing a fixed installation.
Compact, portable and pool ready
Despite its reach, the Seeker Pole Kit is compact and easy to manage. It packs away neatly, making it practical to take between different swimming pools. Coaches can set up in minutes, move between lanes and carry everything with ease.
For travelling coaches, this makes the Seavu system as portable as it is powerful. It is built for regular use around wet pool environments and simple enough to use during busy coaching sessions.
Setups that work and scale
- Seeker Pole Kit: The go to setup for poolside swim coaching and quick underwater technique review.
- 1.5m or 3m pole options: Choose the reach that best suits your coaching style and pool environment.
- Seeker Viewing Harness: Add hands free phone or tablet viewing at chest level, so you can walk alongside swimmers while monitoring the live feed.
Because Seavu systems are future proof, you can upgrade cameras in the future without replacing your full setup.
