Summary Draft #2

 A website from Deeptrekker (Deeptrekker, 2022) promotes the usage of their underwater Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV). Among its functions, the ROV has the capability to conduct intensive observation under rough conditions and concurrently send live feedback to its user. The GTG3, a miniature class ROV, is a lightweight machine with built-in thrusters, a rotating camera, an Ultra Short baseline (USBL) positioning system, and a state-of-the-art controller with many add-on options to the robot. As mentioned on the webpage, the camera used on the ROV is an enhanced 4k resolution camera that allows users to inspect under dim lighting conditions and provides enhanced clarity with its underwater auto-adjusting functions (Deeptrekker, 2022). The rotating camera can show a 270-degree view vertically and horizontally of its surroundings (Deeptrekker, 2022). This feature is helpful when inspecting structures with large areas. Besides the camera, the webpage mentioned that the USBL positioning system has a discrepancy of 20cm from its actual position reducing the chances of losing the robot (Deeptrekker, 2022). The machine also comes with a multifunctional controller that eases the inspection check for users. The GTG3 has many add-on options (interchangeable tips) to cater to the unique needs of the users, for instance, a grabber's arm, a sensor, and a laser scaler. The addition of these enhanced features will allow the GT63 to be a worthy investment. I believe that the versatile robot will be able to accomplish tasks accurately, reduce time spent underwater and be safer in comparison with a human inspector in a harsh environment.
