Would the RoboTuna be able to swim efficiently in the ocean with all the currents and waves?
(Question sent by students in Mr. Heavner’s class) Fish are designed to produce with their tails large forces to overcome the forces from currents and the waves. With their flexible bodies, they are more capable at doing this than man-made submarines. The RoboTuna is designed to move like fish and is equally capable of producing with the action of its body and tail of overcoming – like live fish – the forces of the waves and the currents.
