The submarine supports mapping the ocean

16 underwater devices will perform exploration missions and assist in mapping the world's oceans.

Unmanned underwater vehicles are designed as a glider with a length of about 2.2m. The change in buoyancy will produce thrust and energy that help the device move underwater at speeds of up to 35km per day. Height and depth sensors, GPS receivers and altimeters will help them navigate when underwater.

The mission of the 16 submarines is to continuously collect data on ocean currents, temperature and salinity, the Telegraph said. The data will be transmitted to the land watchdog every time they surface, through a telecommunication connection system provided by Iridium satellites.

Based on the data, researchers can predict and determine the climate and climate more clearly. The life of the phytoplankton surrounding the vessel will be controlled by an optical sensor system.

This technology allows researchers to gather more important data than ever before, according to researchers at Rutgers University. The use of underwater automatic devices will help determine the current state of the oceans and assist marine environmental researchers with climate change and climate change.

According to the plan, the project to form an oceanographic map will last until 2016, when each device is expected to move about 6,000-8,000km.
