An ocean glider is an autonomous, unmanned underwater vehicle used for ocean science. Since gliders require little or no human assistance while traveling, these little robots are uniquely …

An underwater glider is a type of autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) that employs variable-buoyancy propulsion instead of traditional propellers or thrusters.

The OceanGliders program brings marine scientists deploying gliders from all over the world to observe on the long term physical, biogeochemical, biological ocean processes and …

The OceanGliders program brings together marine scientists deploying gliders from all over the world to observe long term physical, biogeochemical, biological ocean processes and …

Gliders are autonomous underwater vehicles that perform saw-tooth trajectories from the surface to depths of 1000m, along programmable routes. They move up (down)ward thanks to a …

Capable to 6000m operating depth, Deepglider™ is the latest in AUV glider technology. This vehicle can profile all the way to the bottom in 98.8% of the world's ocean basins, and cross …

These versatile vehicles collect information from deep water, as well as at the surface, at lower cost and less risk than ever before. As scientists deploy more gliders, they are revolutionizing …

OceanGliders is an international program created in 2016 to support active coordination and enhancement of the worldwide glider activity. The program shares the scientific knowledge …

Mobile platforms, such as Gliders, provide much-needed flexibility in ocean observations as they allow for the movement of sensors through the water in three-dimensions. Buoyancy-driven, …

Ocean gliders are autonomous underwater vehicles used to collect valuable ocean data, including information about hurricanes. In this podcast, we uncover the technology behind hurricane …
