An underwater drone is now searching the deep waters for treasure and other artifacts that it may recover on large bodies of water.
A startup is focusing on developing the technology for multiple purposes. The drone aims to bring help in going underwater without any hassle and dangers, foregoing the snorkeling and diving set for a person, from land to deep parts of the ocean or sea.
Underwater Treasure Drone: Searching the Depths Remotely
There is a new underwater drone called "SeaSearcher," and it is a unique innovation that aims to bring information from the ocean or seas' depths while creating a digital 3D map of the location. The vessel also has the capability to detect metals on its search, giving more information and context to the location's hidden gems.
The SeaSearcher drone can detect metal up to 33 feet below the seabed, and it is an effective device to go and search for lost artifacts or treasure that hides from the naked eye.
It can also go to depths that humans may usually find hard to venture to use regular gear for diving, providing a technology that would help in further explorations.
The drone is a Long-Developed Technology from Startups
The drone is a collaborative effort by SeaFarer and engineer Tim Reynolds, the CEO of Wild Manta.
Currently, there are searching the depths of Florida's water bodies, in the area south of Cape Canaveral. It aims to explore different locations of old Spanish wreckages that carry gold and other artifacts that it lost while sailing the waters to and from Havana. According to SeaFarer, there is much treasure that awaits discovery in the area.
Underwater Technology Now
People are meant to stay on land, but that does not mean that they cannot venture underwater or over the air, as technology helped in bringing that to many. One of the top leading ventures here is U-Boat Worx's submarine that is not for the government's use, but rather a commercial one that may host weddings and parties underwater.
Of course, underwater technology is not solely meant for going to the off-grid locations that are unreachable on a normal basis, as Google is one company that invested in the tech for their needs. They plan to connect the United States with the United Kingdom and Spain via data cables that it would install in the massive Atlantic ocean.
Many ventures focus to bring on-water and underwater technology, and they focus on connectivity and exploration for different needs and intent.
Now, two companies in a single collaborative effort are aiming towards looking for treasure underwater and using their resources and innovation to have this for the world. The treasure is not limited to forgotten gold or loot found underneath, but also aims to recover pieces of history from sunken ships or lost cargo from the past.
