Surfing Robot Tells Scientists Where the Sharks Are
Imagine a full-time device (robotic surfer) to keep tabs on the ocean’s predators. Researchers at Stanford University have enlisted a Wave Glider robot in their efforts to track the migratory patterns of great white sharks off the California coast, near San Francisco. They’re bringing that data into the non-scientist’s pocket with a shark-tracking iPhone app to raise awareness for their work. This may or may not effect your next session. More on the store HERE.
