Robot For Smugglers

Ultrasound Capability Robot

Ultrasound Capability:

A warning to all smugglers:

A new underwater robot could be used to sniff out contraband — including weapons and drugs — hidden aboard ships.
This ultrasound capability not only lets the robot monitor what's inside a ship, but it also enables it to detect false hulls and propeller shafts, which are commonly used by smugglers to hide contraband, according to the researchers. And best of all, the bot's propulsion system is specially designed to minimize visible wake, making the bot a good fit for jobs that require stealth, such as underwater patrolling.
The robot could also be used to speed up the processing and routing of regular maritime traffic.
