What the?!

seabreacher is a submersible watercraft inspired by dolphins.
the vehicle is designed and manufactured by innespace productions and comes in a few different
models as well as customized builds. just like a dolphin, the seabreacher can jump dive and roll
through the water at speeds of up to 40mph or 20mph underwater. the driver and a passenger are
kept dry inside a sealed cockpit, but are free to look around through the glass top. the boat took
over 10 years to develop and is now easy enough to drive and maintain for the average person.
the design retails for around 48,000 USD and comes with a number of options such as additional
view ports and custom upholstery.

NEWS - Cascade_09

Last week we had our final cascade_09 group presentation at the BFI. Even though it was quite informal I still managed to get nervous but I think it went well. Also, thanks to John Nussey we were able to create a working mock-up of our idea using Arduino.

I really enjoyed the whole project and met some great people.

The video below gives some highlights from our week working at the Doodle Bar.
