The Nereus, a hybrid ROV for very deep sea dives. Tragically, it imploded studying the depths of the Kermadec Trench in 2014, and was never recommissioned again.

RangerBots are designed to seek and kill invasive crown-of-thorn starfish that threaten the Great Barrier Reef and aaaaaaaaaaaa so cool! . . . #rangerbots #hardsurface #hardsurfacestudies #robots #marinerobots #machine #killingmachine #sketch #sketchstudy #sketchbook #penandink #ink #lalalichanart https://www.instagram.com/p/BqFy7qIHCH1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=fv84vlr1ai2o
