SeaSearcher Drone


Everyone who has ever tried to find sunken treasures knows that this is a very costly and technically complex event. The SeaSearcher underwater drone, developed under the guidance of engineer Tim Reynolds, who heads the Wild Manta company, will help facilitate the work of underwater treasure seekers.

This underwater vehicle is specially "sharpened" to search for metals (with an emphasis on precious ones), which it is able to detect at a depth of up to 10 meters under the seabed. During the search, SeaSearcher creates a digital 3D map with an indication of the location of the lost treasure on it. What is the principle of search know-how — a trade secret. It is only known that the drone can "dive" to a 100-meter depth, after which it can "fly" over the seabed at a height of one meter, carefully probing it with electromagnetic, radio frequency and acoustic waves.

SeaSearcher

Using algorithms formed in the process of machine learning, the underwater drone carefully analyzes how metal objects hidden at the bottom react to these waves. As a result, he manages to measure the depth of the search objects and the type of metal they consist of. However, during the test tests at the site of one of the shipwrecks in Florida, he did not find gold and silver. He got smaller "loot" — items made of aluminum, lead, brass, stainless steel and copper. Since we are talking about a prototype of the future underwater drone, its creators have something to work on. Serial SeaSearcher will be controlled remotely, or work completely offline according to a special program. It is also possible to integrate the drone into a towed installation.
