Genesis was designed and built by a team of five Sea-Tech members and alumni; three high school, and two collage students.
Genesis is the most advanced ROV ever build by the eight year old 4H club, boasting two four-function pneumatic arms, tilting camera, seven sensor inputs, four thrusters of 22+ lbs thrust each (made by Minkota), four on-board microcomputers, fully variable throttle, and... room for improvement!
Our club website is http://www.seatech4h.com/index.html
Weight: 135 lbs
Thrust: Vertical: 44 lbs Horizontal: 56 lbs
Voltage: 12v
Amperage: 26 Amps max
Pneumatic Pressure: 40 psi
What are the seven sensor inputs? I'm guessing temperature, depth, um...?
