About the Vehicle
The vehicle, The Wave, is a submersible that will let us study the ocean depths. For this tour
to be safe, we have a bathysphere connected to The Wave for communications and life
support. It is also perfectly designed to withstand any amount of pressure. To get a better
view of surroundings and to tell the depth of our vehicle we have built in sonar to identify
the highs and lows of the ocean floor. The Wave has a 16 wheel drive and can hold up to 35
passengers. The inside includes a restroom, snack bar with all your favorite foods, and
reclining seats to have a comfortable and enjoyable ride. A very unique feature of the
outside is an invisible plating that will help to not attract the dangers of the ocean.
