This video explains how easy it is to use an OpenROV 2.8 to control an external servo. There are no circuit board modifications; just match up the wires by color. The keyboard controls are alt-q ...
OpenRov 2.8 dive in Hardangerfjord, Granvin, in Norway. Objective was to check teather boyancy, but it went to be a nice interesting dive, with rather clear water. Maximum depth on this dive was 35...
OpenROV is a drone of sorts that travels deep into the waters and can be directed by a laptop, giving those controlling it on land a close up view of what's down there.
THE MARTIAN | Teaser Trailer: During a manned mission to Mars, Astronaut Mark Watney (Matt Damon) is presumed dead after a fierce storm and left behind by his crew. But Watney has survived and find...
Our away team worked up quite a thirst surveying the floor of Lake Tahoe. What's a dedicated robot crew to do but send them a cold one in style? I, for one, welcome our new underwater robot bartend...
For inventors, patents are an essential protection against theft. But when patent trolls abuse the system by stockpiling patents and threatening lawsuits, businesses are forced to shell out tons of...

Using the OpenROV Controllerboard+Beaglebone, this is an R&D preview of programming a SimonK based ESC with new firmware using only the signal line already connected to the ESC from the servo pin.
This is a compilation of some of the best footage collected during OpenROV dives between 2013 and the beginning of 2014. Sequence of shots: 1. Top down view of fish surrounding OpenROV (as they oft...
This video shows a hack on OpenROV that was done during the IOIO Hackathon at the MIT Media Lab in Boston. During the first day, we were able to create a program which would allow an on-board Andr...
First water test of OpenROV kit. A DIY remote controlled vehicle (ROV) Tested out in the bath tub to sort out any problems before going adventuring into the real world. Check out openrov.com for m...
During a trip to retrace part of John Steinbeck's journey in "Log from the Sea of Cortez" we used an OpenROV to explore the waters of Bahia Los Frailes, about 100km north-east of Cabo San Lucas, on...
In this video, OpenROV co-founders David Lang and Eric Stackpole explain why they created an underwater exploration robot and how they use it to explor...
A very quick demo of the first time I had the OpenROV cape and beagle bone setup and working. Featuring tilt servo, brightness control, motor spinning. Controlled both with keyboard and gamepad. At...

David Lang and Eric Stackpole have started a community of tinkerers, engineers, and programmers to build and Open ROV, a remotely operated vehicle to go hunting for treasure at the bottom of abando...
We built a breadboard Arduino to connect to the Beaglebone over UART. The program seemed to be sending data correctly, but the servo wasn't moving. To test this, we hooked up a Saleae logic analy...
Test of OpenROV analog version in a small lake. We saw a school of fish. Rough video, due to inconsistent video connection to ROV (we believe caused by low batteries onboard).
