      Sorry I don’t, maybe one of the others? The closest I get to a robot is a giant mechanical arm that can load samples for me, about 100 times faster than I could do on my own.

      No but there are people here who engineer underwater vehicles that can be remotely operated from a ship and sent off on missions to collect information.

      No, I’m afraid I don’t. But I got to see this remote handling facility a few months back, which I think is pretty amazing. http://www.jet.efda.org/remote-handling/how/
