THIS WEEK -> Diving in Lake Tahoe (Kickstarter Update #13)
Original post : June 6, 2016
Hello!
This will be a quick update, mostly to point you to all the exciting testing and events we're doing this summer as we push on with production.
The big news is this week's dive on the wreck of the SS Tahoe at depths of more than 120 meters. This will be a good field test of the software we're planning to ship with Trident. We're planning to live stream and share the whole process. It should be a lot of fun!
Here are the ways to participate and follow along:
All the dive streams will be on our Twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/openrov/profile
The background on the wreck and our preparation process can be found on OpenExplorer: https://openexplorer.com/expedition/returntothesstahoe
Behind-the-scenes videos and live streams from the cabin and crew will happen on Facebook Live: https://www.facebook.com/OpenROV/
The other big event is the Open House at OpenROV HQ on July 16th. You can RSVP for the event here. We'd love to see you and give you a live demo of the Trident.
Hopefully see you in person or online during one of these events. As always, thanks for being on this adventure with us!
