Under water robotics are pretty cool. I do not know if it’s something I would do personally as a job but it is pretty interesting. They are helping the environment by fixing reefs such as the coral reef in Scotland. I like marine biology and oceanography that’s why chose to talk about this. I’m glad that they are able to be environmentally friendly. They aren’t dangerous for the world or for people and they can go lower than divers can in the ocean, they are like underwater divers. Under water robots are called AUVs sometimes. There are submarine AUVs too. The only thing that could possibly be wrong with the underwater robotics is that one of the rechargeable battery companies that most of the big AUVs use can be very dangerous if you don’t handle it very carefully, other than that they are extremely good for the environment. Also since they can go deeper than divers can they can get better pictures that human divers can’t. They will be able to take pictures of sharks and whales and other aquatic species that might harm humans if they took the picture.
