Today, there are remotely operated underwater vehicles working all over the world. Like the CURV, these devices are connected to their operators by a tether, probing the depths of the ocean sometimes for science, and many times in service of deep-sea oil drilling. Theres even an OpenROV project that created a kit that lets anyone with a few hundred dollars to spare build their very own underwater robot to explore the ocean. It cant quite get all the way down to the depths of the Mariana Trench, but, hey, we cant all be James Cameron.
