[PSUBS-MAILIST] ROV opportunity

[Brian Cox via Personal_Submersibles]

If this ROV project turns out to be for real I'm thinking of using a Basic Stamp microcontroller.

These thrusters are interesting in that they are made with stainless/ plastic and aluminum. they are open to the water and water actually runs thru them and cools them.  They claim that they can even handle some amount of sand particles in the water.  They are very small but perfect for ROV use.  

Could this be done with thruster sized motors.I saw Doug Jackson doing the same thing with his ROV motors.

 Sounds
 like a cool opportunity if you've got the willingness
 and time Brian. This past summer dad and I were on the hunt
 for a missing outboard motor on a Canadian lake. We had a
 camera but no ROV. We actually ended up cutting a 15 foot
 sapling to use as a camera pole. Depth was only 17 − 20
 feet so the sapling worked pretty well as a camera handle
 from the boat (and we found the motor), but a controllable
 ROV would have made things much easier.
 It looks like those guys make some
 nice parts for ROV projects. The technical (software) aspect
 scares me a bit, but that's only because I am
 electronically challenged. ~ Douglas S.

 Hi
 All,                In my search
 for some Soda Sorb I stumbled on to a dive shop down in
 Hollywierd ,  the shop owner does a lot of business with
 the studios and wants me to build him a ROV camera
 platform which has certain capabilities that are not
 available at the present time.  I'm thinking about
 trying to come up with something for him.  I found these
 nifty thrusters made by these highly motivated kids.
