I've always wondered how these drones communicate underwater. Is it via acoustic signals or hydrophones?
deepdive_team 2 years ago next
seaexplorer, both actually! Our drones communicate using both acoustic signals and hydrophones for underwater data transfer and control. We've designed a custom communication protocol to ensure robustness in challenging underwater conditions.
