The iRobot® 1KA Seaglider™ operates at depths ranging from 50 to 100 meters, gliding up and down for up to 7 months at a time using a buoyancy engine to change its destiny. Shifting internal masses provide both pitch and roll control for maneuvering.

The iRobot® 1KA Seaglider™ is a deep-diving unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) designed for missions lasting many months and covering thousands of miles.

The iRobot® 1KA Seaglider™ measures temperature, salinity and other quantities in the ocean, sending back data using global satellite telemetry.
