Now all drones did not seem unusual, is nothing more than a remote-controlled robots in the sky! However, did you ever see underwater drones? Recently, a United States team target into a mysterious underwater world, came out with underwater drones and let ordinary people to a closer to the sea.
This is called a OpenROV Trident submarine drones (or underwater robot), the team after four years of design and testing, the latest model. Compared to the previous version, the Trident is more compact, can be placed in a backpack or airline seat bottom. Both in terms of design and performance for this kind of underwater drones are a revolutionary breakthrough.
Like a submarine?
As an underwater drone, Trident will not use aerial drone "four-rotor" or "rotor", it is so match simple submarines from submarine design. Sea World complex, and obstacles, so Trident two side plates of the fuselage using the rubber material, effectively ensure its ability to resist impact. (Even if it is new to rough handling, or worry about Trident were hit bad, OH)
More fishing!
Trident's most interesting point lies in its unique rope design. Yes, as a drone, and it doesn't have a rope hanging, just like fishing, has there? This reminds small series of popular science and technology circles some time ago operation Fotokite drone like a kite. Can only say that designers are too headstrong, too fun! Moschino iPad 4 case
Because radio waves under water transport effect is not good, this rope will bear the burden of data transfer. This rope is connected with built-in WiFi module floats on the water, instant image with 100mb/s speed and detection data to buoys.
This WiFi users would simply float on the water, or a ship, on the beach, you can through a WiFi connection, Trident with a laptop or Tablet PC for remote control, sending back shooting data and access to it. Trident can sneak into the 100m sea, only the standard rope is 25m (for the average person fully covered), longer ropes must be ordered separately.
Fast traffic
Trident is equipped with three special propeller, why special? Because every custom DC Brushless motors and are designed specifically for the job in the salt water. Unique offset hydrodynamic propulsion, for Trident to respond quickly and effectively to the shuttle on the ocean floor, the fastest speed reached 2m/s, for quick search and target has a great role.

Also, it does not balance the vertical thruster ensures the Trident to tilt forward at high speed, so a small space it can also be pretty complete their tasks. And, when it is at a lower speed, it can also keep your balance while hovering or adjust the depth of action.
HD photography
Trident submarine drones equipped with HD cameras can shoot HD underwater imaging, the camera can shoot pictures in real time transfer WiFi buoy on the water supply. Embedded two separate sets of LED lights on either side of the head, provide adequate lighting for underwater photography and night diving.
Technology open source
Trident software, the team practices are open source, encouraging many designer/developer for transformation and innovation. To this end, they have set up a community works users can exchange experiences, share them. In addition, Trident is equipped with the LiFePO4 (LFP) batteries, battery life up to 3 hours.
Wide application
Underwater world mysterious and exciting, the underwater drone realizes the human interaction with the sea, not only satisfy people's curiosity, but also conducive to the development of various undertakings. For example, aquaculture, undersea exploration, marine science, maritime distress search and so on.
The OpenROV Trident submarine drones are raised on the Kickstarter, landing just 1 day with a 595% goal. Key is the price is quite close to the people and all the raised price of $ 799, sold for us $ 1000. Distance has raised over 45 days, is expected in November 2016 delivery.
