Attention, Malissa Wardon.
Greetings Director; I present for you, the Lobster ROV.
This remotely operated vehicle is small at about a meter long and possesses some potentially very useful traits.
*Enameled glass sphere houses camera. This is made to allow operation at any depth.
*Titanium outer shell with glass enamel coating and titanium-honeycomb inner structure makes this "crustacean" particularly durable. Designed to withstand harsh environments with extremes of heat and severe impacts and pressure, the little ROV also has hardened titanium jaws that allow it to collect materials in underwater environments. The jaws are interchangeable to allow various designs to suit any need. (nets can be used to catch fish or collect soft materials. Metal jaws can be used for cracking open surface deposits and collecting hard mineral samples for study.
*Tether range is 33 meters and can be upgraded to 99 meters. ROV has no storage for collected items so relies on the 'Hanger' that it deploys from to place deposits. ROV hanger basket can be attached to habitats or the Coelacanth Utility Submersible. A special version can also be hand-held and placed on the sea floor and operated from there by the user.
*Twin forward facing lights provide light for dark work areas.
*Uses a three-rotor control system as well as a neutral buoyancy system. The two side rotors are able to rotate through 360 degrees as well as reverse. The rear rotor provides stabilization and does not contribute to vehicle movement directly. Rather the rear rotor allows the vehicle to maneuver as needed by countering other forces.
Please see attached images. Design will be receiving periodic updates of design.
Thank you for your consideration of the Lobster ROV.
