and share the images. All of sudden, sub marine research will receive so much more information. To be incorporated in Google Earth of course.
Edit due to linked video: with a small float keeping it above the chain or anchor where it is attached.-- pashute, Jul 23 2019 in reply to 8&max https://www.youtube...watch?v=CfstdnOwq_s [pashute, Jul 24 2019] caused a small edit https://www.youtube...watch?v=w4qO_dIegaM [pashute, Jul 24 2019] gopro on anchor - still with boats only but proof of concept https://www.youtube...watch?v=PUN4pWXYEzE [pashute, Jul 24 2019] this idea reminded me of this great oil rig monster video https://www.youtube...watch?v=IJwGpZ38JHE [bungston, Aug 01 2019] Melz ITM2M display tube https://www.industr...leview.php?item=949Mentioned in my anno. 4-pixel module; would be tiled to make large Jumbotron-style displays [notexactly, Aug 10 2019] It would have to be some distance up the anchor cable to be useful, and even then the view would often be limited by light and silt/mud in suspension.
It would also mean the unit would have to be rugged enough for routine use in a marine environment, which is incredibly harsh - that would make the casing expensive, enen though the camera only cost $10.-- 8th of 7, Jul 23 2019 //and even then the view would often be limited by light and silt/mud in suspension// Yes, but stuff in suspension would only be a problem if the sea floor had recently been disturbed by... ah.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Jul 23 2019 watch videos and resubmit your thoughts-- pashute, Jul 24 2019 //and even then the view would often be limited by light and silt/mud in suspension//
Suspenseful movies can be popular.-- AusCan531, Jul 27 2019 Limpet Cam: like an inverted kite, one end of a cable gets glued to the bottom of a container ship. The other end deploys a camera into the deepest depths for the duration of the cruise.-- sninctown, Jul 27 2019 Science has quite a range of sensors. Can SEDs be bought off the shelf?-- wjt, Jul 27 2019 What's an SED?-- MaxwellBuchanan, Jul 27 2019 Sound Emitting Diode.-- wjt, Jul 28 2019 Yes, you can buy sound-emitting diodes off the shelf, but they'll only emit sound once each.
Slightly more relevantly, it also stands for surface-conduction electron-emitter display, a flat-panel display technology that was given up on a decade ago. It's basically a scaled-down version of that Soviet Jumbotron tube [link] where each subpixel is its own CRT.-- notexactly, Aug 10 2019 I thought an SED was Smoke Emitting Diode - as discovered recently in one of the systems we were testing.-- Frankx, Oct 02 2019 random, halfbakery
