Underwater shoots usually take a lot of specialized gear, building underwater sets are extra expensive, and green-screen lighting has additional unique issues to overcome underwater. Hybrid production makes underwater shoots much more accessible. Made with Luma.

This underwater mystery has puzzled archaeologists for years A mysterious arrangement of stones was discovered beneath Lake Michigan in 2007, but archaeologists still aren't sure whether humans created it

A robot that swims underwater, then flies straight out of it! 🦢 Water is 1,000 times denser than air. Moving through one or the other normally means two completely different machines. Around 100 bird species disagree. Loons, gulls, puffins and petrels dive after prey, then leap back into the sky. Engineers at MIT and EPFL built a robot that does the same thing. It's a flapping-wing aerial-aquatic vehicle, it weighs under 300 grams, and the results are out in Science. @RaphZufferey who runs the AURA Lab at MIT, is lead author. A waterproof motor drives a crankshaft that pumps two flexible wings up and down at set frequencies, and a motorised tail changes angle to climb or dive. The wing membranes are coated with hydrophobic nanoparticles so water sheds off them. Wing flexibility turned out to be the whole game. Flexible enough to keep flapping amplitude low in water, firm enough to hold the robot up in air. → Swims at almost 1 m/s flapping at around 5 Hz → Flies at around 6 m/s at a similar frequency, close to real diving birds → The water-to-air transition needs a pitch of around 70°. Shallower and the wingtips catch the surface, steeper and it falls back in My favourite finding is the one about feet. Puffins and ducks paddle at the surface to get airborne, so the team assumed a robot would need something equivalent. It doesn't. Wings and tail alone are enough.

I just got this underwater scooter. It is designed for scuba diving, rated to 130 ft depth and 1 hour of continuous use. Also fun to use in the pool. Next step is to get my son scuba certified. Then after that spear fishing.
