A movable weight and rotational thrust let robot fish dive, rise, and escape obstacles smoothly in narrow spaces without extra reverse propulsion.
Dual bottom and side intakes plus buoyancy control let the robot shift between pool floor, wall, and surface cleaning states.
Adjustable buoyancy lets a pool cleaning robot shift from bottom and wall travel to surface floating for full-area cleaning.
A buoyancy cavity and propeller system lets pool robots move above or below water, expanding cleaning coverage across pool surfaces.
Controller inflates bladders based on gyroscopic data to suppress roll motion without complex hydraulic mechanisms.
A variable buoy adjusts depth via ballast to transmit oceanographic data.
Segmented hydraulic circuits reduce power consumption during reascent by avoiding high-pressure pumping against hydrostatic loads.
