Scientists studying glaciers need to get very close to collect analyzable data. However, calving events are incredibly dangerous, making it impossible to get close by boat. As a result, AUV’s have recently boomed in popularity because they are fully autonomous and are able gather high quality data with minimal resources. However, they are incredibly expensive, ranging from $10,000 to millions.
Yonder Deep’s primary goal is to make a low-cost, fully customizable AUV in order to revolutionize oceangraphic research.
