DeutschTelepresence technology
Telepresence technology is a term used by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to refer to the combination of satellite technology with the Internet to broadcast information, including video in real-time from cameras used on its remotely operated vehicle (ROV) on Okeanos Explorer. Its ROV will be operating working in a deep sea environment. Data from the ROV is transmitted to a hub based on the land, which then send it to scientists and to the public.[1][2]
This effort of the Okeanos Explorer has been compared to the lunar landing.[3]
The telepresence technology used by NOAA includes the following:[2]
- deep water mapping, to a depth of 6,000 m
- science-oriented ROV operations
- real-time satellite transmission of data.
The Okeanos Explorer is designed as an educational tool that can be followed on Twitter.[4][5]
